Quarantine Cupcake Deliveries

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Baked by Melissa is Delivering Birthday Cupcakes in Lieu of Parties

— May 8, 2020 — Lifestyle
There won't be many birthday parties happening as usual in the next few weeks but Baked by Melissa is hoping to help make up for it by offering free mini cupcake deliveries. 100 people will receive a free 25-pack of mini birthday cupcakes and a party supplies kit from Baked by Melissa so that their day of birth will be recognized and their spirits can be kept high during an uncertain time.

As those with spring birthdays might not even be able to celebrate with close family members, the situation has the potential to leave people feeling lonely and isolated. For those who will be celebrating a solo birthday this year, hopefully the occasion will be a little sweeter thanks to a few treats and special decorations.
