We believe baking should be inclusive.
Anyone should be able to indulge in a brownie or snack on a cookie without fear of what it'll do to their bodies. That’s why our products are free of the Top 9 Allergens so everyone and anyone can easily treat themselves to a yummy treat, without worrying about what’s in it.
We believe in fighting Food Waste.
Almost 40% of food produced is never consumed in the US. That is like every person throwing out 650 apples each year. In fact, fruits & veggies are the largest food waste category, accounting for 39%. Food waste is the single most material landfilled, contributing to 8-10% of human-caused greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (aka climate change).* That is why we are committed to including upcycled “ugly” fruits and veggies as well as by-products in our plant-based products.
We believe in rescuing food.
We tackle food recovery through multiple levels of the Food Recovery Hierarchy. Our primary method is through industrial use, incorporating upcycled food and by-products. We also partner with organizations like Food Rescue US to transfer fresh food surpluses from local businesses (and our own business) to social service agencies serving the food insecure. Lastly, on a personal note, we compost and create “black gold” soil for our garden.
We believe in minimizing our carbon footprint.
We use packaging made with up to 90% post-consumer recycled materials—yep, that includes those plastic water bottles you tossed in the blue bin! By giving waste a second life, we’re helping shrink our carbon footprint and keep packaging out of landfills. Delicious snacks, smarter impact.
We believe in baking an impact.
We are proud to be a member of 1% for the Planet, an alliance of businesses, individuals, and environmental organizations tackling our planet's most pressing environmental issues. We donate 1% of our sales annually to approved environmental non-profits. 1% for the Planet was founded in 2002 by Yvon Chouinard, founder of Patagonia, and Craig Mathews, founder of Blue Ribbon Flies. Today, 1% for the Planet is a network of more than 3,400 members in more than 64 countries who have given over $435 million to protect our planet.
For us, it’s more than just a donation. We volunteer our time to fight food waste. Together, we are building a happier, healthier planet for our children and future generations.
