Panera has brought back its Pink Ribbon Bagel this month to support the fight against breast cancer. The bakery-cafe writes:
During Breast Cancer Awareness Month, participating Northeast Ohio bakery-cafes will donate a portion of the proceeds from every Pink Ribbon Bagel sold to the Cleveland Clinic Taussig Cancer Institute. But since Pink Ribbon Bagels are only available for a limited time, we hope you'll enjoy them soon.

Not only that, but there's also a Cleveland-Pittsburgh competition going on: "The city who purchases the most Pink Ribbon Bagels will receive an additional $10,000 charity donation from Panera Bread."

Find more information on Panera's website, Go Pink With Panera Bread This October.

For the "Lost" finale party we had last week, Mark Podolski and wife Julie ordered this awesome cake from Casa Dolce in Highland Heights.

I'm so impressed at how the bakers were able to craft a plane crashing into an ocean onto a tasty chocolate cake with frosting that was just the right amount of sweetness.

Check out the bakery's website to see the other sweet treats its bakers have crafted (I'm mesmerized by the picture gallery).
