Bloggers Bake for Hope 2012
Bloggers Bake for Hope 2012 is coming soon!
Bloggers Bake for Hope was started in 2011 by Cara and Jen. The first year of the online bake-sale was part of Bake for Hope, which is a week long, nation-wide, 100% volunteer-run, bake sale event. Proceeds were donated to local Susan G. Komen for the Cure affiliates. Nearly $3000 were donated to the Komen Massachusetts Affiliate in 2011 due to the generous contributions to Bloggers Bake for Hope.
In 2012, Cara stepped aside and Jen partnered up with another local food blogger, Fiona. Due to recent contraversy with the Komen Foundation, they decided to donate the proceeds from the bake sale to another breast cancer charity. As luck would have it, Jen and Fiona had both signed up to walk the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer in Boston in 2012. Thus, all donations for Bloggers Bake for Hope 2012 will be donated to the Avon Foundation.
If you would like to donate baked goods, please register here by April 27th. The bake sale will be live on the Bloggers Bake for Hope blog from April 30th until May 2nd. All donations should be in by May 8th and emails will be sent to you, the bakers by May 10th. Please ship your baked goods by May 24th.
I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 
That color is unreal! I’ve made beet green hummus but I’ll have to try using the actual beets sometime!
wow that is pink!! I’ve been trying to think of a recipe for natural pink too instead of just food coloring but I can’t figure anything out
What a great idea – it’s such a beautiful color!
Pink is my favorite color! I’m not a fan of beets, but I would make this just for how cool it looks. 🙂

You even made hummus look amazing!! That color is stunning! How pretty would that look on a table at a party?
How fun – I love beets and the fuchsia is such a conversation piece!
This is SO pretty!! And perfect for Breast Cancer Awareness Month! I’m sure it’s delicious too 🙂

I have made a similar recipe in the past and when serving, place a swipe of creme fraiche in the center, makes it look even more dynamic! Great stuff, great way to get people to eat beets!
That is so PINK! And so CREATIVE!!!! Love it, love it!! I’ve never had beet hummus either…but it actually sounds delicious…
This looks delicious! It reminded me of borscht…yum!
