History of Cherry Thing - A - Lings
This special treat was developed back in the early 70's by our founder Clem Schmidt and has become an amazing tradition in our little hometown bakery. We began only making them on Sunday’s before President’s Day but they have become such a popular treat we’ve had to add more days! We now freshly make these every day for 5 days - from Thursday through President’s Day Monday. With the help of our extended family and beloved friends we churn out record numbers each year, selling out everyday.

Common Questions:
What is a Thing - A - Ling?
A warm, ooey-gooey, delicious fritter donut family recipe with cherries coated in a special glaze.
Do They Freeze?
Absolutely. As with anything, we suggest putting them in freezer Ziploc bags, or some type of seal-able bag, that will protect them from "freezer burn". When ready to eat, thaw briefly, or just throw it in the microwave to re-warm and soften up.
