Open Source Cupcakes Raffle Item, Sweet!

Katie, Jess & DanaOpen Source Cupcakes is the result of a passion for baking combined with an emphasis on sharing, communicating, and making things better. Katie Regenye, Dana Vachon and Jessica Victor are highly involved in the Philly tech community and are responsible for such awesomeness as Cupcake Thursdays at Indy Hall (hey that’s today!), as well as the highly successful CupcakeCamp East. They use Twitter to crowd source for new concoctions which can be found on Flickr where they document their efforts of yumtasticness. Shortly after their debut at BarCampPhilly they launched a more dynamic website – OpenSourceCupcakes.com – a resource for other cupcake lovers, baking enthusiasts, the Philly tech scene, the site also acts as a storefront for the burgeoning company – which is sure to be a huge success.

“It’s time to open source the cupcake. Baking support, new ideas and place where cupcake lovers and bakers alike can communicate.”
