However, the group says it is in need of more cakes to make the afternoon a success.
A spokesperson for CCFR said: "We are unfortunately not allowed to accept food donations baked at home - unless these are baked by professional cake bakers with hygiene certificates.
"We can accept pre-packaged food donations that have ingredient and allergen information."

The free event aims to raise further awareness about CCFR.
While it is not a fundraising event, there will be a raffle and people will have a chance to donate money to the group if they want to.
CCFR is made up of highly-trained local volunteers who respond to emergency calls and provide vital care to patients in the minutes before an ambulance arrives.
