To help consumers satisfy their sweet tooth and contribute to a good cause, Baked by Melissa has teamed up with the Make-A-Wish Foundation on a collection of adorable tie-dye cupcakes. Timed to coincide with World Wish Day, which falls on Sunday, April 29th, the sweet treats are a delicious way to give back.
To help support the Make-A-Wish foundation, Baked By Melissa has created blue-and-white tie-dye cupcakes that are almost too pretty to eat. The collaboration was largely inspired by a young boy named Joshua, who joined owner Melissa Ben-Ishay in her kitchen. Joshua was born with a severe congenital heart defect, but his dream has always been to overcome his illness and become a chef like Ben-Ishay.
To help kids just like Joshua, the charitable cupcakes will be sold between April 29th and May 31st, with 75 cents from every sale going towards the Make-A-Wish foundation. For those who purchase a Latest & Greatest pack, $1.50 will be donated.
