That’d be Kelly Ripa. Yep. We’re on a first name basis 😉 This wonderful lady is involved in so many things. Her latest? Supporting ovarian cancer research. As you know, Mike does cancer research, so anything that supports that is okay in my book. (Even if it doesn’t directly support Mike – it’s still a great cause!) Plus, you could win a kick-butt Electrolux Induction Range.

Kelly and accomplished master baker and cake decorator Buddy Valastro, from TLC’s “Cake Boss,” recently joined forces at a fun event to bake lavishly decorated cakes in support of The Ovarian Cancer Research Fund (OCRF). To add to the excitement, five teams of baking enthusiasts were invited to take part in “Kelly’s Cake Off For a Cause”, where they used what they learned from Kelly and the Cake Boss, to decorate their own cakes.

Although you might not get to taste these virtual masterpieces, you can still weigh in on the results! By visiting Kelly-Confidential.com, you can cast a vote for your favorite cake from Kelly’s Cake Off.

For every vote cast, Electrolux will donate $1[1] to OCRF as part of its $500,000 commitment to help fight ovarian cancer! And since love is on everyone’s mind these days, you can even decorate and send a special virtual cake to a friend, family member or someone you love.  For every cake sent, Electrolux will donate another $1[1] to OCRF.  Plus, Buddy’s top cake decorating tips are available — sure to inspire baking enthusiasts and novices alike.

If that’s not enough to get you to click over, everyone who logs on to the site and sends a virtual cake will be automatically entered for a chance to win every baker’s dream: a stylish new Induction Range from Electrolux.

Sweepstakes period: 2/09/10 through 4/12/10 (Cake Off lasts 2/9/10 through 2/19/10)

[1] Electrolux will donate $1 for every day you log in or register and vote in Kelly’s Cake Off for a Cause and every day you log in or register and send a virtual cake to a friend with a minimum of $30,000 and a maximum of $40,000.

I heard of this through MomSelect. My incentive for sharing this with you (beside the whole “let’s kick cancer’s butt” thing) is an entry for  a shot at an Induction Range from Electrolux.
