VSC Bake Off for Macmillan : A Sweet Success

VSC Bake Off for Macmillan : A Sweet Success image

We’re delighted to share that this year’s Macmillan Coffee Morning Bake Off at the VSC was a great success, raising a total of £213 in donations on the day and online, all in support of Macmillan Cancer Support.

Our staff brought in an incredible spread of homemade bakes, including Chocolate and Raspberry Cake, Chocolate Fondant, Baladyna, Sezamovie, Victoria Sponges, Lemon Drizzle, Madeleines, Mars and Marshmallow Bites, and White Chocolate & Raspberry Cheesecake. Many of the bakes were made with help from staff members’ children, making the occasion all the more special.

The judging panel had the difficult task of selecting winners from such a delicious line-up. First prize went to Nina Polaschek, our HR Manager, for her White Chocolate & Raspberry Cheesecake. Marcela Mich Nee Pietrzak from Housekeeping was awarded runner-up for her impressive entries of Baladyna and Sezamovie.

We would like to extend a huge thank you to everyone who baked, judged, and joined in. With your generosity, we’ve raised funds that will help Macmillan continue their incredible work supporting people living with cancer.
