Nearly 100 bakeries and confectioners in French-speaking Switzerland are committed to the fight against breast cancer.

The “Un carac pour la bonne cause” project is gaining momentum, following its launch last year by Mélanie Tanner, who became a volunteer with OSE Thérapies following a bout with breast cancer. This year, almost 100 bakeries-patisseries-confiseries throughout the French-speaking part of Switzerland will be offering the pink cake in the shape of a breast, a gourmet and offbeat nod to the disease. To promote this initiative, the association has the support of the Association Romande des Artisans Boulangers-Pâtissiers-Confiseurs (ARABPC), as well as comedians Cuche and Barbezat, ambassadors for bread and chocolate 2023. A gourmet approach to make a lasting impression throughout October, awareness month for the fight against breast cancer. 50 centimes per carac sold will be donated to OSE Thérapies, a not-for-profit association in the canton of Vaud that provides support for cancer sufferers through adapted activities.
