It is the power of pink
Once the leaves start changing and you switch out your iced coffee with hot cocoa, you can be sure Panera Bread will once again be rolling out its pink bagels — yup, pink bagels — to help raise money for breast cancer awareness. That wonderful bakery that makes the most scrumptious yeasty confections is again hosting its Pink Ribbon Bagel campaign that benefits Gilda’s Club NYC. Panera’s campaign has raised more than $1 million bagel bites for breast cancer research, education, and vital support groups since its inception a bit more than 10 years ago.
So from this little yellow donut — “Come on down, get a dozen or more and know that every bite you take helps defeat breast cancer.”
By the way, the pink bagel is a cherry vanilla bagel — a brown-sugar sweetened, wholesome cranberry-cherry chip bagel — that is shaped into iconic “pink ribbons.” Delizioso!
Panera Bread [Kings Plaza, Flatbush Avenue and Avenue U in Marine Park, and at 345 Adams St., near Fulton Street Mall Downtown].
