Events at Hawk Creek Animal Shelter
Thank you to our community for saving our animals tails!
Order Krum Kaka- HELP the animals
What is it? Well it might be a delicious Norwegian crispy wafer like cookie rolled into a cone shape, but it's truly so easy to eat without even putting in any yummy fillings. It tastes like a light sugar cookie!
Wait what can you do? YES, you can fill them with any sort of filling, from whipped cream and berries to a pudding mixture. The skies the limit, but keep the kids from eating them all before their filled, they are that yummy.
What's next? Order before November 21 for Thanksgiving, order by December 15th for Christmas and order extra so you can have some NOW. Karen hand makes these and has been doing it for many many years (she's a pro), but you need to call or text 320-235-2609 her so she can make more, and she donates ALL the money to the animals.
