Not only is this cake delicious, it's also a slice of Citizen Commerce™ .
At Daily Grommet we’ve created an experience where anyone can help us find good products and help share their stories. By “good,” we mean things that preserve craft, provide real innovation, give back, and/or are ecologically responsible. That’s the central idea of our Citizen Commerce™ philosophy.
Here are just a few examples recommended by the great citizens of the Daily Grommet community:
Smith Island Cakes, suggested to Daily Grommet by Jessica Smith (no relation), hail from Smith Island, Maryland, where they’ve been prepared since the 19th century. Their thin layers, sealed with frosting made from cooked fudge, stay fresh longer than conventional cakes. The results are not only delicious, but make them ideal for shipping and storing (once opened, they stay fresh for a week, or can be frozen up to two months).
Charlie’s Soap, suggested to Daily Grommet by Leslie Reichert, author of The Joy of Green Cleaning, is a non-toxic, biodegradable laundry detergent that cleans stains and doesn’t leave any perfume or residue on your clothes. It was originally invented to gently clean oils and grime from yarn machines at an American textile company in 1976, and worked so well that mill employees wanted to use it at home.
Vapur Collapsible Water Bottle, suggested to Daily Grommet by Molly Ruffle, is made in the USA from flexible BPA-free plastic that collapses, flattens, and rolls up when emptied. How neat is that!
The Zip-n-Go Waterproof Picnic Blanket unfolds to provide you with many satisfying summer outings in a portable, durable, soft-yet-weatherproof package. Sue Bruce recommended it to us because she was impressed by the quality of this USA-made item, and we think you’ll be too.
We hope you will join the movement and tell us about your favorite things. Just fill out our super-quick form, and know that we really do look at each and every submission. Can’t wait to see more of your personal Grommets!
