Green-leafers Cheesecake fundraiser!

2009-10-11T11:47:00.003-05:00

Our Green-Leafers 4-H Club is selling gourmet cheesecakes again this fall. All profit goes toward our community service efforts, local charities and club programs for the year. The cakes are SO yummy and GREAT for the holidays! If you're interested in purchasing one/more, just let me know via email or phone. Amy Millett, leader (309) 454-3031

Nine premium cheesecake flavors are offered this year: The first 8 flavors are Traditional, Chocolate Chip, Cookies and Creme (flavored w/ Oreos), Key Lime, Turtle, Strawberry, Raspberry and Pumpkin. These all weigh 2 lbs. 4 oz. The Traditional and Chocolate Chip cakes cost $14/cheesecake; the other six cost $15/cheesecake. The last flavor -- Variety -- is described below and weighs 3 lbs, 13 oz. It sells for $20 and is our family's favorite!

All cheesecakes (except the Variety flavor) are 7" and pre-sliced into 10 generous portions. The Variety cheesecake offers 14 restaurant size portions and features 7 different flavors (2 slices of each): Traditional, Turtle, Amaretto, Chocolate Chip, Cookies & Creme, Pineapple Coconut Creme & Mint Chocolate Chip.

Other details: All cakes arrive frozen and will be delivered to you the week of November 9th, if you live in the B/N area. Thawed cakes can be refrozen. Shelf life under refrigeration, 5 days. Frozen cakes would maintain quality and freshness 6 to 10 months, but they never last that long at our house.

Thank you, in advance, for supporting our club!
