Exploding Bakery x Darts Farm: Cake, Community & Shared Love For Good Food
If you’ve ever been to Darts Farm, you’ll know it’s not just a farm shop. It’s a full-blown West Country playground, voted as the best farm shop in the UK for the fourth time in a row. And there is a good reason why.
We’re proud to say Exploding Bakery cakes are stocked at Darts Farm, and it’s one of our favourite places to supply. Why? These folks put quality first, care for the provenance and the community and have a healthy obsession with food.
We're huge fans of their restaurant 'The Farm Table' and have taken our staff there for a Christmas Feast as well. The Farm Table offers a dining experience focused on seasonal, local ingredients cooked with fire, emphasising simplicity and high quality produce grown on-site or sourced from local artisans. Like Darts Farm, we're big on ingredients and sourcing as locally as possible.
More Than Cake: Being Part of the Darts Farm Community
The thing we love most about Darts Farm is that they’re not just great at selling food. They’re brilliant at building community. And we’ve loved getting stuck into that.
Community Harvest: Proper West Country get-together
Darts Farm’s Pebblebed Vineyard Community Harvest is iconic. Locals picking grapes together, muddy boots, big laughs and simple but tasty food prepped at the vineyard. We like to keep up with the tradition and donate our cakes for the pickers to keep the team spirit going.

Seasonal Events & Tastings
Darts don’t do small. Their seasonal events are properly special and beautifully organised. You'll often get a chance to sign up to tastings, demos and meeting artisan producers. We’ve been part of these too, including events where Exploding Bakery cake sampling has been a total sell-out.
