Depressed Cake Shop pops up around the globe, selling sweet treats that have been designed to create conversation about mental health. The gray icing symbolizes the gray cloud that depression casts on sufferers, and it is paired with pops of color to show the beautiful world that is waiting when people receive treatment and support. We also promote and encourage creativity because research has shown that baking and other art practices can be helpful tools when dealing with mental health issues. Finally, and most importantly, we have enabled mental health charities to raise funds and awareness by participating in our local bake sales. Hundreds of thousands of dollars have been donated to charities around the world based on these all volunteer efforts. Take a look at our site to read about upcoming shops, learn about what we have been doing, and find ways you can get involved. The Depressed Cake Shop is open 24/7 and all are welcome here.
