That's right alia..

These treats are defintely tasty..

I even had one myself..

But what makes them even better..

The money raised by purchasing them... goes to mental health services.

Something the baker..

"jessie" says is incredibly .

"i work as a birth and post partum doula and between 10-20 percent of moms get post partum depression in their first year after child birth and it's really important to make sure that need is addressed even if somebody might not be able to afford it.

" check out these delicious treats.

They're halloween inspired too.

The first... "goo goblin"..

It's a decadent chocolate brownie..

And the second..

"jack-o-lantern bread"..

Filled with pumpkin and other spices.

Each treat costs 10-dollars..

And again the money goes directly to the "f-s-a counseling center."

She'll drop it right off at your door to ensure covid-19 safety.

In the next half hour..

How covid changed the way the culinary queens give back..

But ways they're still making it work to better our community.

For now reporting live in the newsroom, where to stand.

A local woman is taking baking to a new level.

That's by using her treats to help others... news 10's jordan kudisch is in our newsroom... she explains how it's offering more mental health services to the wabash valley.

Alia..

What's better than some delicious desserts..

And helping the community?

According to "jessie"..

The woman i spoke with..

The answer is nothing.

That's why she's helping out.

I stepped inside her kitchen... and watched the "baking" magic happen.

She's selling brownies..

And pumpkin bread..

For 10-dollars a batch.

And to make them happen she's using ingredients like cage free eggs.

The money will be donated to the f-s-a counseling center..

And because of covid-19..

"this" is how the culinary queens of the valley are bring in the money.

Jessie says at the end of the day... it may be "messy" bu it's worth it.

"and sometimes you need a little help to get your cup filled and being able to raise funds to help people fill theirs is something i thought would be very worthwhile to spend time doing."

The main event will be held october 15th.
