Hello valued family, friends, customers, and donors,

Why you should Back The Dream...

Doordash, a billion-dollar company, sees the value of my work ethic, my brand and my grandmother’s recipes! I have now been offered to expand into 6 more locations by May of 2023 and another 5 locations by July 2023. My wildest dreams and blessings are coming true, but I need some help and financial runway to give me a head start. 

I started baking when I was six years old and continued to bake with my mother as I got older as a way to stay connected to my grandmother and the women before her, who’s recipes we used. The women in my family used baked goods as a way to bring income into their home, a source of therapy, to help a neighbor be able to buy shoes for their child and help supply learning materials for schools in the neighborhood. Even though they couldn’t fully establish themselves as a business they still impacted those around them with delicious desserts that helped them reach milestones. Little does my grandmother know she impacted me the most. Though I started the business in 2017, it pushed me to pick up the torch in a bold way. In 2019 I legally formed Cupcake Me!.

You see, Cupcake Me! is more than just amazing cupcakes, cake jars, and cakes. It's my family to your family, it’s a memory, it’s a community, and most importantly a commitment to success and growth. 

Cupcake Me’s growth significantly impacts lifestyle, community, and legacy.

I am asking you to Back the Dream! I am currently raising $30,000.00 to give Cupcake Me! the capital needed for growth! The $30,000.00 would give my company a financial runway to hire additional bakers to help fulfill the demand of the Doordash expansion and secure supplies and ingredients needed. With my new contract with Doordash the business will be able to operate on its own after the first six months, but I need your help to get started.

What the growth of Cupcake Me! means to me and why I love doing what I do so much is the positive change and outlook in my life personally. As well as the fact that growing within Doordash will allow further growth of my business in whole. After six months of securing this expansion, I will then be able to pay for my food cart which will provide cupcakes and cake jars to the Manhattan and Bronx area, hire full time staff, and by January of next year open my full production kitchen which will allow more accounts to bring our cake jars to more consumers. My goal and what I aspire to be with my business is a version of Baked by Melissa but of course with a larger variety of Cake Jars! This opportunity gives my delicious desserts a chance to go nationwide!
