At Tamar Fresh, we believe that sweetness comes in all forms. This September, we celebrated a special day dedicated to spreading love, warmth, and a little bit of sweetness – the Macmillan Cake Day. It was a day filled with joy, delicious treats, and heartfelt conversations, all in the name of a great cause. In this blog post, we’ll take you on a journey through the delightful experience of our Macmillan Cake Day and why we were excited to be a part of this fantastic initiative.
Macmillan Cake Day is an annual event organized by Macmillan Cancer Support, a UK-based charity dedicated to helping people affected by cancer. The idea is simple but impactful: people come together to bake, buy, and enjoy scrumptious cakes, all while raising funds to support the organization’s critical work. Every pound raised goes a long way in providing vital support to those facing cancer and their families.
At Tamar Fresh, giving back to the community and supporting noble causes are at the core of our values. Macmillan Cake Day was an opportunity for us to combine our love for delicious desserts with our commitment to making a positive impact. Here are a few reasons why we eagerly embraced the idea of hosting this event:
- Supporting Those in Need: Macmillan Cancer Support plays a crucial role in providing physical, emotional, and financial support to individuals and families affected by cancer. We wanted to contribute to their efforts and make a difference in the lives of those going through difficult times.
- Building a Stronger Team: Hosting a Macmillan Cake Day provided our team with a unique opportunity to come together, bond, and collaborate outside the regular work environment. It’s amazing how a common goal and a shared love for baking can bring people closer.
The day of our Macmillan Cake Day was a whirlwind of activity and sweetness. The preparations began well in advance, with employees bringing their homemade treats to share. From classic chocolate fudge brownies to delicate cheese cake, there was a wide array of baked goods on offer.
Our office space was transformed into a charming bakery, with tables adorned with colourful decorations and a centrepiece that featured the Macmillan Cancer Support logo. The excitement was palpable as the aroma of freshly baked goodies filled the air.
The whole day was a huge success! Thanks to the generosity of all who participated, we were able to raise over £100 for Macmillan Cancer Support. This not only reflected our collective commitment to the cause but also demonstrated how a simple act of kindness, like enjoying a slice of cake, can lead to significant change.
