Boston Strong

In response to the tragedy at the Boston Marathon, area bake shop Cupcake has launched a special promotion to benefit those affected.
All proceeds from Boston Cream cupcake sales will go directly to the One Fund Boston organization.
Created in a joint-effort by Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick and Boston Mayor Thomas Menino, the One Fund Boston organization is raising money to help families most affected by the tragic events that unfolded during the marathon on April 15.
The Boston Cream cupcake is made with a vanilla cake base and is filled with vanilla cream, topped with chocolate icing and drizzled with ganache. These special cupcakes are available daily at all locations: Charleston, Mount Pleasant, Columbia and Greenville until Saturday.
