Several cupcake bakeries are doing fundraisers for relief for Japan in the wake of the recent earthquake and tsunami. If you're doing something, leave it in the comments (you can always reach us at cupcakestakethecake at gmail.com but as always, we cannot post everything that comes our way though will try to retweet or post about Japan-themed charity cupcakes) and I'm pretty sure I'm forgetting something someone emailed so I will do one more followup post this week. Georgetown Cupcake raised $7,000 for the Red Cross with red velvet cupcake sales, and Cupcake Central in Australia has been selling limited edition "Pray for Japan" cupcakes to raise money.
