The other is in a brand new location for us, Allston, at the Union Square Farmer’s Market, 500 Cambridge St. with Marshall’s Farmstand from 11-3.
We’ll have our usual delicious selection including some gluten free and vegan options for the grand opening of Farmer’s Market season!!
Did I ever tell you the story of how I met Carol Brownman Sneider–the woman behind Boston Bakes for Breast Cancer?
Well, then, read on. There once was a sweet little cupcake truck that yearned to spread treats all over Boston spouting daily flavors on a Facebook page and from a Twitter feed. Carol heard the cry, asked if I’d participate (of course, said I) and summoned that little truck to come to a press release event with media from television news stations and newspapers along with well-known Boston chefs. I hesitantly agreed, not being a trained pastry chef nor from the restaurant/food world I felt out of my league. And uncomfortable. But sometimes causes are greater than your fears. So I sucked it up and drove my truck over and stood facing all the cameras behind Todd English’s right shoulder and Joanne Chang’s left ear lobe feeling very Forest Gump-like. But Carol is such a fantastic person–she made me feel at ease by reminding me that I was there lending support for this cause. Thank you, Carol. For more information on this event: bostonbakesforbreastcancer.org/
That was 3 years ago. My cupcake truck and I have never looked back. Each year I contemplate the theme I want my Boston Bakes For Breast Cancer Cupcake to represent. Last year I did a lemon almond olive oil cupcake. The theme was to do a healthier cupcake using a good-for-your-heart oil instead of butter.
This year I’ve chosen back to the basics and classic: a vanilla topped chocolate cake dressed up with nonpareils and decorated with the breast cancer logo.
So if you’re out and about this weekend either at the Haley School’s Silent Auction Gala at the Boston Nature Center on Saturday evening 4-7 or at the Arnold Arboretum’s Lilac Festival on Sunday 10-4–we’ll have these both days. 100% of the profits go to this cause.
Is it spring?! Oh please yes. As someone who works out of a truck all year long, I am ecstatic that warmer weather is, dare I say, here–at long last. It was a very, very, very long winter.
This week (and pretty much the month of April) schedule of locations is light as we do ever-more catering. As always, email for info on having us at your workplace or office in the truck of just delivery.
