imitation is the sincerest form of flattery

Just noticed that a company that already noted their recycling efforts years ago coincidentally reiterated their recycling efforts which look dangerously close to our website (that just launched). Coincidence? I don't think so. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. However, I want you to know that we've been doing this from the day we open. We realize that the landfills are shamelessly filled with cupcake containers. As a result, we thought long and hard about how to minimize our footprint. That is why we are providing options such as paper packaging for cupcakes, offering slight discount for people who re use their containers, use as many green products at our Bakery as possible and we really do recycle everyone of our paper products on a daily basis. Until commercial recycling is mandated, all of us at Bliss and Co will continue to recycle all of our paper products. We do this because we believe in it, not because we believe it will secure more clients. I love our home and we want to set an example that anyone can do the same. If Bliss and Co can do it why can't we all? Especially the big guns out there....you know who you are and you should be ashamed that on a daily basis you throw all of your packaging in the waste bins. That includes Starbucks!
