Connie Milstein & Foundation Sweet Success

As part of her efforts at Connie’s Bakery and General Store, Connie Milstein has created Foundation Sweet Success. The foundation is the giving vehicle for the Bakery and General Store, which offers 100% of its after-tax profits to support charitable organizations.

Each year, Connie Milstein and Foundation Sweet Success select six non-profit organizations to be Connie’s charitable partners. The funds from the foundation are divided equally among these organizations, and these six non-profits are promoted at Connie’s stores and on the website.

Certainly, Foundation Sweet Success accepts donations beyond the purchases made at the bakery and retail store. In addition, if you have a non-profit organization that you’d like to be included in the Foundation Sweet Success, you can apply for consideration through the bakery website.

Connie Milstein Salutes President Obama at Inaguration

In January of 2009, the new president of the United States, Barak Obama, was inaugurated into office. To celebrate this event Connie Milstein had her unique store, Connie's Bakery and General Store, send 20,000 delicious brownies to add something really special to an already special occasion.

The brownies made their appearance at eight different inaugural events, one of them the Day of Service event in which 10,000 brownies appeared at RFK Stadium. Each and every brownie was wrapped in red, white and blue with a sticker saying, "Congratulations President Obama!"

These brownies are really something that Connie Milstein can be proud of. As the assistant pastry chef Jaimie Jeffrey described said, "Our brownies are extraordinary.They’re nice and fudgy and soft. Mmmm.”
