Once a year gluttony is a good deed, because we use it to give childhood cancer a taste of its own medicine!

Huge ambitions for a national charity event!

2024 marked the comeback KickCancer’s Éclair Day! For the first time we organised the event in March, and that’s a keeper.

KickCancer fulfilled its huge ambition: Éclair Day became a national event! With 360 participating bakeries we reached sweet-tooth supporters in (almost) every corner of the nation.

128,000 euros thanks to talented bakers and their generous clients

We are very grateful for the generosity of all the warm-hearted bakers who donated their craftsmanship, time and ingredients. A record edition? Yes, with 35,000 éclairs sold and a total fundraising of 128,000 euros! On top of that, we reached many people and created public awareness about paediatric cancer.

As the events godfather Pierre Marcolini supported Éclair Day.by baking these delicious pastries for our press tour. Our dedicated survivors Jérôme and Jules even made it to the tv screen, while prepping and selling éclairs.

Satisfy your sweet tooth and help kick children’s cancer, one bite at a time!

Want to join by eating éclairs with family and friends or by inviting your favourite bakery to participate in Éclair Day? Every éclair sold helps fund vital innovation for children with cancer and spreads hope.
