FAQ

1. Can I buy or sell cupcakes at the event?
No. Cupcake Camp Charleston is for people who want to bring cupcakes and eat them for FREE at the event (November 13, 2021, 3-5 PM we are at Palmetto Brewing, 289 Huger Street, Charleston, SC 29403). All monetary donations will benefit a local charity. This year's charity is Warrior Surf Foundation.
2. Can I really attend if I don’t bring cupcakes?
Yes! While bringing cupcakes is encouraged, we need 11 people to eat a cupcake for every dozen!

3. I’ve heard the event is based off of BarCamp, what is that? Check out http://barcamp.org/

4. Do we bake or decorate our cupcakes at the event? No - your cupcakes should be ready to go at the event. You may touch up with frosting or last minute repair. However, feel free to organize your own baking get-togethers with friends before Cupcake Camp!

5. Where have Cupcake Camps already taken place? People have organized Cupcake Camps all over the world, including San Francisco, Toronto, Dublin, and Sydney!
