Cupcake crusaders are getting ready to “bake a difference”!

National Cupcake Day is coming soon on Monday, February 25 and you’re invited to host a Cupcake Party any time during the months of January or February.

Each year hundreds of homeless and helpless animals are brought to the Georgian Triangle Humane Society (GTHS). Last year alone, approximately 1,300 cats and dogs entered our shelter: abandoned, abused and neglected. You can help save these lives by raising funds for National Cupcake Day.

Cupcake parties can be held at work, home, schools, and community centres throughout the region. Local businesses can surprise their customers with cupcakes for a good cause – because it’s the sweet thing to do! Register at www.nationalcupcakeday.ca.

Local businesses can benefit from becoming involved with National Cupcake Day:

“For me, it’s a win-win for the community – it’s a fun February event and it generates happy traffic in our store” says Sylvia Bray, Owner of Grandma’s Beach Treats and Deputy Mayor of Wasaga Beach.

GTHS is also inviting animal lovers to their Frosted Family Festival event held on Sunday, February 24 between noon and 3:30 p.m. at the animal shelter located at 549 Tenth Line. Bring the kids and enjoy fun outdoor activities like snowshoeing and ball hockey. And of course, delicious cupcakes and hot drinks will be available. 

Specialty gourmet cupcakes will also be available from participating contestants in our Chef’s Creative Cupcake Challenge. These cupcakes sell out fast so grab them while quantities last! Will Heli from Heavenly Café defend her title for a second time or will a new winner be crowned?

With special thanks to Royal LePage Trinity Realty for their generosity and continued support as Title Sponsor, as well as Cupcake Sponsors Barriston Law, Mullin’s Pet Market and The Ontario SPCA!
