Enforced by code
The contract is designed to send 90% of mint revenue to the charity partner's wallet on every withdrawal. No discretionary transfers, no "trust us" step in between.
Ten thousand birds.
One very good cause.
Caked Birds is a 10,000-piece collectible collection on Base — every bird frosted, sprinkled, and entirely one of a kind. Each mint is $10, and $9 of it goes to charity. Not a promise to donate later: the smart contract will route it there itself, automatically.

Where the $10 goes
Most charity drops ask you to trust a promise. Caked Birds puts the split in the contract code, where anyone can read it.
The 90 / 10 split is written into the smart contract's code, so it applies to every withdrawal once the contract is deployed — and the verified source will be readable by anyone on Basescan.
Verifiable in public
The contract source will be verified on Basescan at deployment, and every donation withdrawal will be posted with its transaction hash and receipt.
Partner: to be announced
Conversations with established charities are under way now. The partner's name — and their receiving wallet — will be published here before the mint opens. No partner, no launch.

Meet the flock
Nine of the ten thousand, exactly as they'll mint — art and traits pulled from the finished collection. Select any bird for its full trait list.
Three tiers, one flock
Every bird is assembled from the same trait system — the tiers simply mark where a bird lands in the pecking order.
Mythic
Birds #1–25. Bitcoin pendants are reserved for this tier — and a small number of flock birds carry one too. Either way, these are the rarest seats in the bakery.

The road to launch
Stated plainly, including the parts that aren't done yet. The mint does not open until the charity partner is signed and the waitlist has had its say.
1
The art
All 10,000 birds rendered and matched to their metadata — every trait accounted for, nothing left to generate.
2
The charity partner
One partner receives the full 90%. Conversations are live; the signed partner and their wallet address get published here.
3
The contract
Deployment on Base with the 90 / 10 split in code, source verified on Basescan, and image files pinned to IPFS.
4
The waitlist
Early supporters sign up below. The mint opens to the waitlist first — a launch happens when there's an audience for it, not before.
5
The mint & the receipts
Mint date announced once steps 2–4 are complete. Afterward, every donation withdrawal is posted publicly with its transaction hash.
How minting will work
For anyone new to this: three steps, and the first two you can do today.
i.
Get a wallet
Install a wallet such as Coinbase Wallet or MetaMask. It's free, takes a few minutes, and it's where your bird lives.
ii.
Add a little ETH on Base
Each bird is $10, paid in ETH on the Base network, plus a small network fee — usually a few cents on Base.
iii.
Mint on launch day
Waitlist members get the link first. Choose how many birds, confirm in your wallet, and $9 of each $10 is already on its way.
Questions, answered straight
How much does a Caked Bird cost?
$10 per bird, paid in ETH on Base at the rate set when the contract deploys. Of that $10, $9 goes to the charity partner by contract; $1 covers project costs.
When does the mint open?
No date yet — deliberately. The mint opens after the charity partner is signed and announced, the contract is deployed and verified, and the waitlist has been given first access. Join the waitlist below and you'll hear the date before it's public.
Who is the charity partner?
Not announced yet. Talks with established charities are under way, and exactly one partner will receive the 90%. Their name and receiving wallet address will be published on this page before the mint — if there's no named partner, there's no launch.
How can I check the 90% really happens?
The split is written into the smart contract itself, not a policy. Once the contract is deployed, its source will be verified on Basescan for anyone to read, and every withdrawal to the charity will be posted with its transaction hash and the charity's confirmation.
What do I get as a holder?
A one-of-a-kind bird from a finished 10,000-piece collection, and a mint that sent $9 to charity the moment it happened. Secondary sales on OpenSea will carry a royalty, with a share continuing to the charity — so resales keep giving too.
Is this an investment?
No. Caked Birds are collectibles for a cause. Buy a bird because you like it and because $9 of the price does some good — not because you expect it to be worth more later.
Be first in line when the bakery opens
The waitlist hears the mint date first and mints before the public. Joining takes one email — no wallet, no payment, nothing to sign.
