Apple Dumpling Sales

Date(s): 10/07/2022 - 10/08/2022
Time: 9:30 AM

Apple Dumplings—those tasty apples wrapped in pastry and covered in sweet cinnamon syrup —  are returning to Historic Ephrata Cloister to help raise funds for the Back to the Cloister Fund. Proceeds from this annual event allow the Cloister to compete with private collectors and other institutions on the open market for original items made at the Cloister

 The apple dumplings, made by Achenbach’s in Leola, will be available for purchase at $5 each beside the Museum Store at the Historic Ephrata Cloister on Friday, October 7, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and Saturday, October 8, from 9:00 a.m. until sold out. There is no guarantee supplies will last until the end of the day on Saturday, so plan to make your purchases early. 

 Orders of ten or more dumplings can be made and pre-paid at https://bit.ly/3ya3ze7  Free delivery is offered for pre-orders of 20 or more within 10 miles of the Ephrata Cloister. Contact ephratacloister@gmail.com to make delivery arrangements. No admission to the museum is required to purchase apple dumplings.
