Planet-Friendly Gifting: Cake, Cocktails & Carbon Karma
At Exploding Bakery, we’re in the business of baking cakes that blow minds, but we’re equally obsessed with making sure every slice does something good for the planet. Because really, cake should leave crumbs, not a carbon footprint.
That’s why we signed up with 1% for the Planet. It means a chunk of every order goes straight into real environmental projects. So when you gift one of our cakes, you’re basically a stealth eco-warrior with impeccable taste. High five.
And because we love shouting about our fellow South West businesses doing good things, here are some of our favourite 1% for the Planet gift ideas to round out your Christmas list:
|
Bar Buoy: Exmouth-based bottled cocktails. We’ve “tested” them (a lot) and can confirm: dangerously drinkable.
Crankhouse Coffee: roasted just down the road from us. Ideal for caffeine nerds who want flavour fireworks from every cup.
Ethica Diamonds: Cornwall’s ethical jewellery rebels. Lab-grown sparkle without the blood diamond baggage.
Truthbrush: Ashburton’s eco-luxury toothbrush brand. Because even brushing your teeth can be bougie and planet friendly.
Prima Soles: reducing landfill one cork shoe sole at a time. Sustainability underfoot, literally.
Block Design: gorgeous glass candle holders and Christmas décor that make homes prettier and brains happier.
Frond: tiny gardening snips that make you want to prune everything in sight. Cute, useful, giftable.
Pretty great list, right? Cake may be the headliner, but we’re proud to be surrounded by people who are doing their bit for the planet too.
Festive Ordering Reminder!
Our last delivery day this year is Saturday 20th December, so make sure you get your orders in before 2pm on Friday 19th December.

Thanks for backing small, ethical and delicious.
Love,
Tom & Oli
