We came. We saw. We sold baked goods.
Such is the tale of the 2012
#MKEfoodies Holiday Bake Sale.
One of the tables at the #MKEfoodies Holiday Bake Sale.
This was the second year of the bake sale in Milwaukee, and we raised $1,600 this year. That total comes to nearly $5,000 when including matching funds from
OXO and funds from
Glad Corp.
Cream Cheese Mints (cinnamon flavored).
This year we brought the following cookies/treats: Cream Cheese Mints (in cinnamon, spearmint and wintergreen flavors),
Peppermint Meringues and Peppermint Popcorn (with white and dark chocolate). Check out
our Facebook page this week for updates on what we bought.

The Results
If you missed the event, you can still donate at the link below.
MKEfoodies Foodies Doing Good in Milwaukee's Personal Page for Cookies for Kids' Cancer
We raised almost $1,600 for
Cookies for Kids' Cancer in just an hour and a half before we sold out of baked goods!
With the OXO match, that means we raised $3,200 for the cause.
And with the cookie match from Glad Corp., we get very close, and probably surpass $5,000!
YOU ARE ALL SUCH GOOD COOKIES! Thanks, Milwaukee!
Mark your calendars for the second Saturday of December in 2013! The Third Annual Bake Sale is bound to be even more successful.
