[November 18, 2013]Cinnamon breakfast rolls are a
long-standing tradition of the Harvest of Talents for World Hunger,
dating back to the time when sisters Glenda Appel Allison and Gail
Appel Clark made the first batch of 300 rolls from a recipe of their
mother, Veva Appel.
This year at the October event, some 1,900 cinnamon and caramel
pecan rolls were baked under the leadership of Joe and Melanie
Schaler and served as breakfast fare at the 30th annual Harvest of
Talents.
At the request of fans, the cinnamon roll project is
taking on a new dimension. This year, for the first time, cinnamon
rolls will be offered in "take-and-bake" form for holiday
entertaining.
Pre-orders are being received for frozen cinnamon rolls with a
container of icing and baking directions for $3 per roll.
Gluten-free rolls will also be available for purchase. Rolls may be
ordered in any quantity. They will be individually frozen and
packaged in zip-lock bags, making it convenient to remove and bake
only the amount desired.
Prepayment is required. Order forms are available in the office
of Lincoln Christian Church, or by contacting Melanie Schaler at
tlkatv@yahoo.com or
217-871-8254.
All orders must be picked up on Saturday, Dec. 14, between 9 a.m.
and noon, at the small canopy entrance off the church parking lot.
Anyone having further questions should contact Schaler.
If you're looking for a special treat for visiting relatives or
something special for Christmas breakfast when the kids come home
from college, perhaps Harvest "take and bake" cinnamon rolls are
your solution.
The Schalers say, "Just pop the cinnamon rolls in your oven, and
your home will have that same wonderful aroma that fills the
Fellowship Center each October on Harvest of Talents morning."
