    Bake For Good 2025

    Bake For Good

    Join fellow New Jersey bakeries in supporting the Community FoodBank of New Jersey through Bake for Good 2025! This annual fundraiser transforms the creativity of the baking community into meals for neighbors facing hunger. Since its 2022 launch by Andrea Lekberg of The Artist Baker, Bake for Good has raised the equivalent of over 55,000 meals for CFBNJ.

    Every $1 provides 3 nutritious meals, and with 1.1 million New Jersey residents facing food insecurity, your bakery’s participation will make a lasting impact. Past partners have donated proceeds from featured items, with their creations highlighted across CFBNJ’s channels. The Artist Baker, The Baker’s Grove and CocoLuxe Fine Pastries are already on board for 2025. Sign up today to support New Jersey families in need.
