Yes, you can purchase a “green” wedding cake, and I don’t just mean in color! A number of bakeries around the world make organic cakes these days.
Don’t forget to also choose natural flowers and an environmentally-friendly topper, and make plans to donate any uneaten cake to a homeless shelter in your area or a needy family you know so that leftovers don’t go to waste while you’re on your honeymoon.
There are even a number of websites for organic bakeries, so it is fairly easy to find one in your area.
Here are some bakeries that make organic cakes:
- Hippie Chick Bakery – Kensington New Hampshire
- Nana Pearl’s – New York City
- CMNY Cakes – New York City
- Wildflowers – Bridgeton, New Jersey
- Bleeding Heart Bakery – Chicago
- Michele Coulon Dessertier – La Jolla, California
- Edith Meyer Cakes – Santa Cruz, California
- Cakes by Ann – Hamilton, Lanarkshire, UK
Many of these bakeries ship, but don’t hesitate to ask about organic options at your local bakery. Got a link to an organic bakery to share? Leave a comment below.
I have been doing green wedding cakes in Los Angeles and Ventura for a couple of years. I just learned about your listing. If you’d like to check out the cakes, the website is http://www.SweetandOrganic.com.
