Company Summary

Cupcake companies are increasingly popular and veganism—both for ethical and health reasons—is a growing trend. Sweet Cheeks Vegan Bakery combines these two trends. We offer more than a delicious cholesterol free snack. We offer a lifestyle. Our primary target customer is a sophisticated, health conscious, educated individual, who understands the importance of reducing her carbon footprint, living sustainably, and eating ethically.
