We should be very proud!

Thank you to everyone who participated in the 2nd edition of CupcakeCampTO!

We are super happy to say that we raised $1700 for The Daily Bread Food Bank! So incredibly amazing.

On top of the cash donation, we also collected a grocery cart full of non-perishable food items!

The Daily Bread Food Bank is always looking for support, so click here to see ways to donate!

Thank you! You all rock!!!

Before the sugar coma takes over, we’d like to thank the following people for making today such an incredible day!

The Bakers – we (obviously) could not have done this without you. Your cupcakes were delicious and insanely creative.

The Eaters – thank you for gorging on such fine treats!

The Judges – Duarte DaSilva, Suresh Doss & Vijaya Selvaraju – you had the hardest jobs imaginable, but were amazing! :)

The Sponsors – Chang’e Studio, Debakery.com, The Grand Bakery, The Masterbaker, Gladycakes, Doll Factory by Damzels, Rock’n'Roar Fitness, Toronto Roller Derby, Passage Tattoo, Thomas Allen & Sons, Cupcakes & Sundry, The Lime Shop, Duhlicious, and Yelp! Thank you!

The Venue – 52McCaul – an incredible gallery run by incredible people. Thank you!

And finally…our volunteers! You made today run so smoothly – we could not have survived without you. Special thanks to: Yvonne, Bonita, Jon, Michelle, Suzie, Mo, Mandy, Rochelle, Christine, Lisa & Emma.

While the final amount is not confirmed, we do know that we will be making a pretty sizeable donation to The Daily Bread Food Bank, including non-perishable food items! Yay!

Thanks again for another fantastic CupcakeCampTO!

CupcakeCampTO is SOLD OUT!

Wow! With just over a week until the big day, CupcakeCampTO is officially sold out for both bakers & eaters!

While we wish we could open the doors to everyone, unfortunately space is limited and we’re trying to control the cupcake chaos (at least a little bit)! For those of you attending, here’s a little reminder of what happened at last year’s CupcakecCampTO c/o SpotlightToronto.

If you’d still like to donate to the Daily Bread Food Bank, we’re accepting donations here!

Cupcake lovers <3 Animals!

We can’t thank our bakers & tasters enough for such an incredible first CupcakeCampTO! We exceeded our expectations in ways we couldn’t possibly imagine. We expected about 150 people to show up throughout the entire afternoon, and ended up with numbers just shy of 400! Who knew sooo many people are crazy for cupcakes?

What makes us most proud is that we were able to raise $1300 for the Toronto Humane Society!! Absolutely amazing! Thank you all for supporting such a wonderful cause!

We hope to do this again (maybe the fall?) and are already working on ways to improve!

you’ve got questions? we’ve got answers!

A few more things to clarify as we gear up for CupcakeCampTO…

  • registration is only for bakers – everyone else is welcome to just show on January 25th. please do, as we definitely need tasters!
  • cupcakes are NOT being sold! the admission fee is strictly to help us cover the cost of the venue & all net proceeds will be donated to the toronto humane society.
  • cupcake consumption is completely voluntary! just remember – cupcakes may have come into contact with nuts, so please be careful!
