Utah Food Bloggers Bake Sale (TOMORROW!)

The National Food Bloggers Bake Sale is tomorrow! Gosh, I can't stand it I am so very much excited! It has been in the works for months and I just can't wait to support a great cause, meet other food bloggers, readers and just plain have fun. Oh, and well....eat some sweet treats of course!

The bake sale is raising money for Share Our Strength (SOS), a national organization fighting to end childhood hunger in the United States. I feel so blessed to be able to participate in a great cause. It amazes me and makes me extremely sad that many children in our country are hungry. I just can't imagine that pain. So here I am, trying to help these little kiddos one cupcake at a time. I hope you'll join in the fun!

Utah is having TWO bake sales tomorrow, one in Salt Lake City and one in Orem. I'll be hosting the Orem location and my friend Maria of Two Peas and Their Pod is heading up the SLC bake sale. I have to give major props to Maria, she is the one who got me involved in this and I've had such a fun time working with her. If you don't know her or her blog. Get to know it now! :)

Here are the details!

The bake sales are being held from 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m tomorrow, Saturday April 17th.

Salt Lake City location-at Dan’s Market (1360 S Foothill Blvd)

Orem location- at Shirley J’s (15 East 400 South)

Thanks to Dan’s and Shirley J’s for hosting our bake sales. We really appreciate your support!

Now listen up...big time! You want to get there early. WHY? Because....



THE EARLY BIRD GETS THE CAKE BITE (and SWAG!):

The first 100 people to purchase a baked good at each Utah sale will get a FREE cake bite from The Sweet Tooth Fairy.

The first 50 people to purchase a baked good at the Utah County sale will get FREE CUPCAKE CERTIFICATES and FREE COOKIE CERTIFICATE to the SWEET TOOTH FAIRY, Cupcake Chic, Cutsie Cakes and Dippidee AND a free chilled milk from my favorite local dairy Winder Farms! (Don't worry chocolate lovers, we'll have chocolate milk for you too!)

If you live in Utah, please come out and support our bake sales. Share Our Strength is a fabulous organization and with your help we can help end childhood hunger. Plus, you don't want to miss out on all of the fabulous goodies baked by Utah's finest food bloggers. There will be cookies, cakes, cupcakes, breads, rolls, etc. We look forward to meeting our readers too! It will be a fun filled day!

If you don't live in Utah or can't make it to our bake sales and would like to help us raise money, you can donate money here. Thank you so much for your support!

A BIG thank you to all of the Utah food bloggers who are baking for this event. It would be impossible to make this happen without you. Thanks so much for your talent and support!
