The BIG Cake Show and charity Sparks to attempt to set a new World Record this Saturday

As the countdown begins to the biggest show of its kind in the South West, The BIG Cake Show is proud to introduce their chosen charity partner Sparks for the fast approaching 2014 show at Westpoint Arena in Exeter.

Show organisers and busy mums Mel Edwards and Kim Vernon are delighted to be supporting the  charity in 2013-2014. To welcome Sparks the organisers have arranged a fundraising event for everyone to enjoy! Saturday 16th November will see The BIG Cake Show and Sparks teams unite as they take on the Guinness World Record challenge of ‘The Largest Cream Tea Party’ with help and kind donations from local businesses Westpoint, In-toto, Posh Nosh, Devon Scone Company, A.I.M Exhibitions, Havills Exhibitions, Stage Engage, The Very Vintage Hire Company and many more who have donated prizes for their fundraising raffle, the team hope to smash the current world record in style.

Sparks fund pioneering research into medical conditions affecting the health of babies, children and mums-to-be. They fund research into a whole spectrum of conditions including childhood cancers, childhood arthritis, meningitis, cerebral palsy and the risks associated with premature birth.

The show organisers said ‘It was a hard decision picking a charity partner for The BIG Cake Show as there are so many worthy causes out there, however when we heard about Sparks and the fantastic work they do our decision was made, as mums ourselves we value the importance of the work Sparks do.’

Following the baking theme Sparks host their own ‘Bake for Bumps’ campaign a fun way of getting involved by getting together with friends and family to bake up a storm. In return for your delicious creations, they ask for a donation to the Sparks charity. The official date for the Bake for Bumps weekend is 16-18 May 2014, giving you lots of time to practice!
