This weekend was the 6th annual Whoopie Pie Festival. We had a ton of fun! All of the proceeds go to charity. For a $5 fee (for adults) you get 4 tokens for four free samples. You can buy additional tokens for only 25 cents. The vendors come from all over the state. They will also sell their full-size whoopie pies for anywhere between $1 and $4. We got smart after last years experience and brought a cooler. We bought about 9 this year, which are now in our freezer, so we can ration them throughout the year.
Some of the flavor’s we bought/ sampled this year were: Key Lime, Watermelon, Thin Mint, Autumn Delight (Apple and Caramel flavored), Cherry, Chocolate Sea Salt, and a bunch more! Kaitlyn liked the Thin Mint so much that she used the $2 she got from the tooth fairy the night before to buy her very own full-size one.
Ready to Sample!
Thin Mint Whoopie Pie!
Kenzie’s look of “you’re eating that, but you just fed me Gerber Turkey with Rice?”
Kenzie got to sample her first Whoopie Pie too… Trying the chocolate cake first…
Then the cherry filling…
She loved it! In fact, hours later she was still grabbing out fingers and trying to lick them, hahaha.
After the yummy samples, we headed down to the craft booths and bouncy houses/ kid activities. Kaitlyn’s favorite was the “Boot Camp Challenge”
The pony ride was also a hit.
That evening we had dinner at Sea Dog and took a walk along the river afterwards. We also stopped to get a picture with the Paul Bunyan statue.
