Oh, How Sweet It Is!

A 1,224 pound cupcake can satisfy the sweetest of all sweet tooths OR provide some SWEET success for Susan G. Komen's "Race for the Cure". A New Hampshire franchise of http://www.gourmetgiftbaskets.com/ was the baker of the 2 million calorie wonder.

Here is an excerpt from the article:

"The colossal cupcake took 12 hours to bake and included 800 eggs and 200 pounds each of sugar and flour.
Slices of the cupcake were served in exchange for donations to the Susan G. Komen for the cure breast cancer organization."

Donating to charities is always at the top of my list, but this cupcake also makes it a "sweet deal".

Have you seen extraordinary donations or fundraising ideas from other non-profits? Please share!
