This past weekend we hosted our second Central Florida Food Blogger Bake Sale as part of the national Food Blogger Bake Sale campaign. I am thrilled to share that our local event raised more than $1,400 for Share Our Strength. The bakers, volunteers, raffle donors and generous customers all made this possible. Thank you, Central Florida — your energy and generosity were inspiring and left me energized.
All photos of the bake sale were taken with my iPhone — my Canon DSLR battery died, so the phone saved the day!
We had a delightful selection of treats for sale. Thanks to Chris for promoting the event and to Katie for co-organizing. A big thank you to our raffle donors, including KitchenAid, Chicago Metallic, Driscoll’s and several local restaurants and vendors who contributed generous prizes.
Special thanks to John Rife and the Winter Park Harvest Festival for letting us use the outdoor space near his building. It was an excellent location and we’re grateful he’s willing to host us again next year.
