T’s Bakery Cafe hosts Epic Purple Day Event!
PURPLE DAY CUPCAKES FOR EPILEPSY AWARENESS
On Monday, March 26, 2018 T’s Bakery Cafe hosted one heck of an event to raise both funds and awareness of the neurological condition.
Who knew that raising epilepsy awareness could be so delicious? All day T’s Bakery Cafe sold amazing, gluten-free hot cross buns, cupcakes, and cookies, 50% of all the proceeds went to the the Epilepsy Association of Calgary – Central Alberta Office. And 100% of the proceeds from a Silent Auction went to the Association as well.
The owner, operator of T’s Bakery Cafe, Tannis, is a warm, lovable pastry magician who thoughtfully uses her local business to give back to the community.
Hearing about this wonderful cause inspired more local vendors to get involved and volunteer their services. Together they set up an amazing Purple Day “Pop Up” event at the T’s Bakery Cafe restaurant. Vendors include: calligraphy by Gian Lee, event decor and rentals by Engaged by Darcie, paperie, and party supplies by The Small Details, photography by Candy Koated Design, balloons by Up Town Parties and design, styling, and coordination by Cynthia Pottinger Events. Together, with the delectable desserts created by the talented T’s Bakery Cafe team, these vendors created quite the amazing Purple Day experience. Check out these images!
Pop into to taste T’s Gluten Free treats, her Bakery Cafe is located inside the Breathing Room Yoga Studio + Cafe.
ABOUT PURPLE DAY
Cassidy Megan created the idea of Purple Day in 2008. Motivated by her own struggles with epilepsy, Cassidy’s goal is to get people talking about epilepsy in an effort to dispel myths and inform those with seizures that they are not alone.
