Allison Cafe

Today our Relay For Life team held a wonderfully successful garage and bake sale. When our team captain asked for volunteers to bake, who do you think raised her hand and volunteered cupcakes? Me of course! I love excuses to make cupcakes, but today’s was extra sweet. One hundred percent of the amount donated today went to our Relay team’s fund raising efforts for the event next weekend.

Of course I wanted to come up with a cute topping. So I used the American Cancer Society’s colors to inspire the toppings. We used red, blue and purple sprinkles. And I placed a gummy Lifesaver candy on top of each cupcake, because that’s what we are fighting back to do, save lives.

Saving lives, one cupcake at a time

I’d like to say a very special “thank you” to everyone who supported our event today with donations. And also to Megan, who helped me bake cupcakes yesterday and whip up some yummy frosting. Click “more” to read the recipe. Enjoy! (more…)
