Our Story
At Planet Bake, we believe every child deserves a tasty, nutritious meal made with care.
With years of experience in catering and a deep commitment to supporting schools and families, Planet Bake has grown into a trusted provider of school meals across Nottinghamshire and beyond.
Our mission is simple: to serve great food that children enjoy, parents trust, and schools rely on.
From Experience to Excellence in School Catering
Planet Bake was born from a long-standing passion for food and a dedication to quality catering.
Over the years, we’ve worked across a wide range of catering environments, gaining valuable experience that led naturally into working with schools.
We now partner with primary schools to deliver carefully planned menus that are child-friendly, nutritionally balanced, and inclusive of a variety of dietary needs.
Putting Nutrition First
We understand that children need the right fuel to thrive — in the classroom and beyond.
- Made using fresh, locally sourced ingredients
- Balanced and portion-appropriate
- Cooked with reduced salt and sugar wherever possible
- Prepared with strict allergen protocols in place
From hot meals to sandwich bags and jacket potatoes, we take care to ensure every lunch is varied, satisfying, and made to high standards.
