Sun Baked
From Solar Cooking
We value the Earth which gives us life. We value a life that is healthy, independent and free. We value the lives of future generations of people, plants and animals. Sun Baked is about putting those values into action.
Solar is the favourite energy source of 92% of Canadians, according to a recent poll. But the up-front cost of residential solar electric power is beyond the reach of most people.
I started Sun Baked to bring products to Canadians that can help them use more solar energy on an intimate, human scale. Solar cooking allows people to use solar energy in their everyday lives, for a low up-front cost.
Our products help customers liberate themselves from dependence on finite carbon based energy sources.
Our products give our customers sustainable cooking options with zero greenhouse gas emissions. Cooking without carbon is backyard cooking you can feel good about.
Our products help customers meet some of their most basic needs; the need for healthy, delicious food, in a way that’s fulfilling, fun, nutritious and beneficial for the environment and society. We can help you use more solar energy, less propane, electricity or wood.
Sun Baked aims to be a sustainable business with zero ecological footprints. We are interested in hearing your ideas, feedback and collaboration to fulfill our mission: helping people achieve true energy independence through solar energy.

[edit] News and recent developments
- July 2007: Sun Baked, a mission-driven business dedicated to promoting solar cooking as a sustainable practice, is now selling solar cookers through its Web site. The cookers include a box cooker from Portugal and two sizes of parabolic cookers from Germany. Several pictures of solar-cooked food can be found on the site, all of which link to a description of how the food was cooked. Sun Baked also offers a small-scale solar catering service targeted at farmer’s markets and other outdoor public events in Toronto. The organic, vegan menu includes a Sun Burger and a falafel patty plate, both cooked using a parabolic solar cooker. For downtown events the equipment and food are transported using a bicycle cart.
