Uncle Nearest & SusieCakes Are Releasing The Sweetest Black History Month Collab

Uncle Nearest

Black History Month just got a lot sweeter thanks to a brand-new collaboration between Uncle Nearest and SusieCakes bakery. To celebrate Black History Month, the two brands intend to satisfy sweet tooths across the country while doing so for a great cause.

From February 1st through February 8th, SusieCakes will feature an Uncle Nearest 1884 Vanilla Cupcake that’s topped with Blonde Whiskey Buttercream. The decadent offering also honors the legacy of Nathan “Nearest” Green, the first known Black master distiller.

With Uncle Nearest 1884 boasting notes of maple syrup, dark chocolate, honey, and warm brown sugar, I’m drooling at the idea of all these flavors in cupcake-form. Also, SusieCakes does NOT miss (their buttercream is the stuff of dreams).

And the greatness doesn’t stop there. To help support the Black community, SusieCakes will donate a portion of proceeds from the Uncle Nearest 1884 Vanilla Cupcake to the Uncle Nearest HBCU Old Fashioned Challenge. The challenge seeks to provide one full tuition scholarship to every accredited Historically Black College & University.

Stay tuned for details on how you can purchase your own batch of Uncle Nearest 1884 Vanilla Cupcakes!
