NORWALK, CT — A Norwalk bakery has created "Ukrainian style" cupcakes, and it will donate the cupcakes' profits to relief efforts as the country continues to fight attacks from Russia. Forever Sweet Bakery (235 Main Ave., Norwalk) is selling the cupcakes by the dozen and in six-packs, and 100 percent of their proceeds will go to Save the Children, the bakery said on Facebook. Additionally, through the end of March the bakery will donate $1 from every cake order (including birthday cakes) to the organization. "We hope that other businesses will do the same by donating," owners Frances and Sky Mercede said on Facebook. "Every little bit counts." Save the Children promotes the health, education and protection of children and provides disaster relief, according to the organization's website. The charity has been working in Ukraine since 2014, where it is providing psychosocial support to children and giving winter kits, hygiene kits and cash grants to families.
