Investing in our Planet
My Sustainability Pledge
My ethos as a sustainable wedding cake designer is centred around creating beautiful wedding cakes, while minimising my environmental impact. I am committed to sourcing ethical produce for all cakes that I create for my couples; I use locally sourced free-range eggs, local or Scottish produce, and vegan or gluten free certified produce for speciality cakes and reduce waste through careful planning and packaging.​​ ​​
Embracing an eco-conscious approach, I have adopted measures to ensure that I use environmentally friendly products where I can, supporting UK based suppliers and small businesses. ​​I use biodegradable packaging for my orders and wooden dowels for my stackable cakes (never plastic). I use packing peanuts for the safe padding needed for posting orders, that are made from potato starch. These can be reused or dissolved in water.
​
I am a member of the Sustainable Wedding Alliance, currently awaiting my sustainability accreditation.
I am committed to planting trees through Ecologi, for each wedding couple. I think this is such a beautiful way that we can care for our planet together and aims to create a lasting journey for them beyond their cake, whilst making an environmental commitment to our planet.
​​​​This is something that is extremely important to me as a person and also a cake business owner, where plastic waste can be quite high. ​I am working to find a better solution for the cellophane wrap that I use for sealing up boxed cake orders and cake tasting boxes. Any suggestions are welcome!
