GRACE CAKE BAKE 2026
For 64 years, the Grace Cake Bake has brought people together to bake, wrap, share, and enjoy our much-loved Christmas cakes while supporting the wider community.
Each fall, volunteers gather in Grace's kitchen to prepare hundreds of cakes for homes throughout Calgary and beyond.

Cake Bake is about more than cake. It is a week of fellowship, service, generosity, and community - and everyone is invited to take part.

Help Make Cake Bake Happen
Cake Bake wouldn’t be possible without volunteers.
During Cake Bake week, people from across the Grace community come together to prepare ingredients, fill pans, bake cakes, wrap and package finished cakes, assemble orders, and help with pick-up days.
No baking experience is required. Whether you can help for one shift, a morning, an evening, or several days, there is a place for you.
Friends, family members, neighbours, newcomers, and longtime Grace members are all welcome to take part.
