Two Butler County Panera Bread locations will sell a fruity autumn bagel to honor those affected by breast cancer and to raise awareness on the disease.

For the 20th year, Panera will offer its pink ribbon bagel during October, which is national Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

The bagel will be sold at the Panera Bread locations at Butler Commons and the Cranberry Mall.

The restaurants will donate a portion of all proceeds from the sale of the pink ribbon bagels to the Young Women's Breast Cancer Awareness Foundation.

Baked fresh daily, the bagels are made of cherry flavored chips, sweetened dried cherries and cherry flavored cranberries, and are topped with honey, vanilla and brown sugar.

In addition, customers can round up at the register to donate to the foundation.

“Panera Bread is excited to spread their mission to increase awareness of breast cancer among young women and provide support groups in the Pittsburgh area,” said a news release from Panera Bread. “The YWBCAF is dedicated to educating women, especially those under age 40, about detecting breast cancer and being an advocate for their own health.”

The limited-time pink ribbon bagel is available for rapid pickup, delivery and catering until Oct. 31.
