We've donated scroll ingredients to the Donation Center a few times (and will likely continue to do so during the raffle). has a plan to get a few more vials out, too! Like others have pointed out though, there are plenty of scrolls that don't require the vial. This is a great time to get your AP up to make some higher scrolls. :)

The overall point of the raffle isn't to spend money. It's to explore areas of the site. We've seen users comment in various places of "wow I didn't realize this existed" or "I haven't been here in forever" for various tasks. Our intention wasn't "Let's get them to spend all the sP!!!", which is why throughout the raffle we've been donating baking ingredients and scroll items, made the baking kit a free gift, etc. I personally wanted to include scrolls because it's getting people to read a few more books to their pets, getting a few higher tier scrolls done, and getting a few to work on the achievements.

Outside of the raffle, we haven't actually gone and donated baking ingredients since we pushed the feature. So it's not really an "every time we add a new recipe" type thing. We put the basket in the Millionaire Center so people can just open that rather than donating every time. If prices get too ridiculous, we make the basket a free gift (which we've done three times now: for raffle, after the last batch of recipes, and I believe when we first put it in the millionaire center?), though we don't do that often at all. Instead we've helped inflation on some of the items by increasing items asked for (like the butters and salts)!

I've already said this somewhere but, I'll be looking into giving out baking ingredients via quests after the raffle is over but much lower chance than how the baking powder is going out right now (tbh we need it going out at the moment so I'm fine with the chances during the event).
