The Philippines was recently hit by two typhoons (#TyphoonRolly and #UlyssesPH) and Filipino citizens that were able to survive are in great need of food, clothing, and survival packs.
I am taking reservations for the Camelia Bakes “Ube Lover Box” with all proceeds going directly to Pagasa PH to support their relief efforts.
To reserve your box, send an email to hello@cameliabakes.com.
Maraming salamat sa suporta!

Thank you, Julia Moskin, for highlighting the Bakers Against Racism bake sale! It’s amazing how big this initiative became and I’m so happy that other pastry chefs and bakers have continued to bake for a cause.
Let’s all keep fighting the good fight!
For the past couple of months, I’ve had the pleasure of working with Savory Crust (home of the best empanadas you will ever eat) to provide meal kits for frontline workers in Chicago and the surrounding suburbs. Each meal kit contains two empanadas and sauces, a bowl of elotes, and a Camelia Bakes crinkle cookie. We are so grateful for the hard work and dedication of our city’s frontline workers and are happy we can support them in this way.
If you’d like to donate a Savory Crust meal kit, you can do so here.
I’m so excited to announce that I’ve partnered with Ari Rose Body Care to show our appreciation for the frontline workers who are working tirelessly to fight the 2020 Coronavirus pandemic.
You can read more about the special care package that we’ve curated called the “Little Something Sweet” Bundle here.
