In 2022, we began the tradition of donating proceeds from our Rainbow Pride Cupcakes to an LGBTQ organization in Michigan, and the first was Jim Toy Community Center. Jim Toy, the first publicly “out” man in Michigan as of 1970, is a household name when it comes to LGBTQ activism in Michigan — a badge earned from 40 years of tireless effort to protect sexual and gender minorities, and promote equality for all. Today the JTCC is a resource for information, education, social events, and advocacy by and for the LGBTQ community and its allies throughout Washtenaw County.
Stop by the Next Door Cafe for a cupcake or order online! These cupcakes from Zingerman’s Bakehouse are chocolate cake topped with a rainbow-colored vanilla Swiss buttercream and a white fondant heart. Our goal is to sell ONE THOUSAND of these cupcakes this month! Supporting a pillar of our community in exchange for delicious cupcakes? That sounds like a win-win if we’ve ever heard one!
