Funnel Cake Madness

The funnel cake stand at Dairy Days was a HUGE success again this year!  A tremendous thanks goes to all who spent time helping by mixing, pouring, flipping, sugaring and serving the cakes!  Here are a few pictures!

For those of you unfamiliar with the process, here's what we do all day!

First you have to pour the mix (mixed to just the right consistency, which Pastor has become a PRO at!) into the pitcher with the funnel on it.  You pour batter from the pitcher into the round form in a pretty pattern.

Let it sit in the form for a few seconds to firm up just a bit, and then carefully remove the form.

Let the cake fry in the 350* oil for about 45 seconds or so.

Carefully flip the funnel cake over, and cook for another 30-45 seconds.

Cover generously with powdered sugar! mmmmmmm

We had lots of great volunteers helping, and I didn't get pictures of everyone, but here are a few that I did get.

This is about the shortest the line was from 5:00 until 11!  We made a LOT of funnel cakes!!
