In celebration of mothers, bite-sized cupcake bakery Baked by Melissa is teaming up with non-profit Every Mother Counts to benefit mothers everywhere.

Launched on Wednesday, May 1, the new dulce de leche flavor features a white vanilla cupcake with orange salted caramel icing. It can be purchased a la carte in-store or as part of May’s Latest & Greatest 25-pack in-store or online. Baked by Melissa will donate 10 cents to Every Mother Counts for every individual cupcake and 30 cents for every Latest & Greatest 25-pack sold.

Hundreds of thousands of girls and women around the world die every year from complications in pregnancy or childbirth, and 90 percent of these deaths are preventable.
