Back in August, Meghan was gifted a gorgeous carrot cake from Luminary Bakery for her birthday. Luminary has two locations in the London area, and the bakery is all about sending a message of female empowerment.

The bakery has a mission of serving women who have been negatively impacted by poverty, violence, and other socioeconomic struggles. Luminary teaches women how to bake and how to run a business, as well as employs them to work in their kitchen and wait-staff. Meghan loves Luminary's mission so much, that she included them in the "Forces of Change" edition of British Vogue that she guest-edited.

Currently, due to COVID-19 concerns, Luminary is only fulfilling delivery and takeout orders that can be placed online. To help bring joy to those who are staying inside, the bakery is making beautiful "isolation cakes" that can be purchased for takeout or delivery. You can also order one of the cakes and get it sent to a friend's house to show them you're thinking of them.

The cakes come in a ton of flavors to choose from, like lemon and blueberry, chocolate and berry, sticky toffee, carrot, salted caramel and chocolate, and Victoria sponge. There are also gluten-free and vegan options available. Once you decide on a flavor, you can choose from four fun and sweet sayings: "Isolation Cake," "Netflix & Isolation," "We'll Get Through This," or "Thinking of You."

Each cake comes iced with the message of your choosing as well as with decorations like candied fruits and berries and other garnishes. You can choose to get the cake delivered within 10 miles from the bakery for an additional fee and the bakery ensures that every delivery uses the least amount of human contact as possible.

Our Camden gals have hit the streets to bring our neighbours (within a one-mile radius) who are self-isolating all of their Luminary favourites; delicious flat whites made with @newgroundcoffee, slices of cake, brownies, loaves of @thedustyknuckle bread, you name it, we bring it! When our Lum delivery lady arrives at your door they will give you a ring, set your order outside your door and stand two meters away while you come to collect it, then they will give you a wave and be on their way. 👋⠀ ⠀ Our Camden location is currently operating with delivery and take-away options ONLY. ⠀ ⠀ We do not yet have this service available in Stokey due to lack of woman-power, but will keep you updated if it does become available. 🤞Our apologies to our Stokey neighbours unable to leave the house. The Stokey shop is still open for take-away customers for those who are able to pop round. ⠀ ⠀ #socialenterprise #purchasewithpurpose #luminarybakery #luminarycamden #bakerydelivery #coronavirusdelivery
