Here's the deal: write a haiku can about anything — cupcakes, any other food, green tea, something seasonal, something funny or serious - and if your haiku is chosen, you will win one free dozen of matcha cupcakes, delivered by Foiled Cupcakes, free of charge.

(One condition: You have to live within Foiled Cupcake’s expansive delivery area . . . or have the cupcakes sent to some lucky person there.) Send your inspiring entries to:
