The Environment - being eco conscious

Here at Petit Pithivier I try my best to be as eco-friendly/eco-conscious as possible. I try to minimise use of plastic packaging where possible and make sure it's environmentally friendly. I use cardboard boxes and craft paper which are naturally biodegradable: chuck them on the compost heap if you have one or into the recycling. Either way, they will bio-degrade. 

When I send macarons by post, I want them to be as good as if you'd collected them straight from my kitchen, so I use plastic inserts which keep each macaron separate and hold them all steady through the post. For added extra protection, I pack paper around them which is fully biodegradable.

I use parcel tape at the moment and have been looking into purchasing paper tape which is 100% biodegradable.

I am part of a scheme called Ecologi who take climate action seriously. I pay a small fee every month to offset all carbon emissions from my business and personal use.
