I ♥ NY!

Unless you've been living under a rock, you are probably aware that this past week, New York and much of the East Coast was pummeled by Hurricane Sandy. As a born and bred New Yorker, my heart aches to see the devastation left in Sandy's wake. I've been checking in with friends and family, many of whom are without the basic essentials like electricity and running water. If one thing is certain though, New York has the resilience and strength to get through this and move on.

Here at Sugar Daze, we'd like to do what we can to help New York get back on its feet. All this month, you'll find our Empire State of Mind (apple walnut with maple syrup buttercream) in store Thursday, Friday & Saturday. You can also purchase it by special order. We'll be giving 100% of the proceeds from the sale of this cupcake through November to the American Red Cross of Greater New York. Do you really need a better reason to stop in for a cupcake?! Hope to see you soon!

PS If you are not in Paris or can't make it to the store, here are a few ways you can help provide relief to those affected by Sandy.
