Sustainability Made Tasty

Let’s get one thing straight: we’re a bakery, not a cutting edge think tank nestled in the Silicone Valley. We're not here to crack climate change before the kettle's boiled. But that doesn’t mean we sit on our hands. We get creative with the Exploding Bakery way.

We believe good cake starts at the core and for us, that means baking with care, purpose, and a healthy respect for this little blue planet we all call home.

So here’s what we’re doing to make our wholesale cakes more sustainable, and why choosing us means serving slices that actually do some good.

Premium Ingredients, Always

We only use high quality, responsibly sourced ingredients. That means better flavour, better texture, and support for farming practices that aren’t wrecking the soil or rinsing the planet.

We don’t do cheap shortcuts. If it’s going in our cakes, it’s earned its place.

No Palm Oil, Ever

We don’t believe in “sustainable palm oil” as it's not a thing and nor is monoculture farming.

Our cakes are 100% palm oil free. Always have been. Always will be. 

Plastic Free Packaging

Your cakes arrive in sturdy, fully cardboard packaging, sealed with a recyclable sticker.

No cling film. No plastic windows. No landfill guilt. Just eco-friendly cake packaging that looks good and feels better.

Electric Van = Greener Cake Drops

All our local visits are made in Big Mary, a fully electric company van. It’s not the fastest thing in the world, but it gets our cakes from A to B with a smaller footprint and no tailpipe tantrums.

Smarter Supply Chains

We encourage our café partners to order wholesale cakes through distributors. Why? Because using existing delivery networks keeps extra vehicles off the road. More cake, fewer carbon emissions. 

1% For The Planet

We’re proud members of 1% For The Planet which means 1% of our turnover goes directly to environmental causes.

Every tray of brownie, every slice of banana bread and every piece of cake contributes to real change. So when you stock our cakes, you're not just feeding people, you're also fuelling impact you can be proud of.

We Team Up With Good People

We're always on the lookout for like-minded businesses doing brilliant things. Whether it’s tackling water pollution with Surfers Against Sewage or supporting ethical farming practices, we believe in teaming up rather than going it alone.

Change is better when you’ve got mates.
