Winona County DAC is very excited to offer Butter Braid® pastries as a fundraising program. A Butter Braid® pastry is a unique and delicious homemade frozen pastry loaf that the customer lets rise 8-12 hours and then bakes to produce a delicious breakfast, dessert, or dinner side. They are hand-braided and layered with real butter to create a sweet, flaky pastry with incredible flavor that melts-in-your mouth! Butter Braids are NOT sold in stores.
Butter Braid® Pastries are 22 ounces in size and are available in eight delicious flavors: Cinnamon, Blueberry-Cream Cheese, Strawberry-Cream Cheese, Apple, Cherry, Raspberry, Caramel Rolls, and their 4 Cheese and Herb. Each Butter Braid (and the caramel rolls) are $14.00 except for the Herbs and Cheese which is $14.50. All products come with a frosting, caramel, or marinara packet depending on the braid purchased.
The proceeds from the sale will go towards a backyard upgrade at the DAC. We earn $6 for each Butter Braid sold (if we sell over 250 braids otherwise, we get $5 per braid) and our goal is to raise $3,000.00.
*Backyard Upgrade*
- Our hopes for the backyard upgrade include:
- Adding a wheelchair swing to the swing set. (This way all of our individuals can have the chance to utilize said swing set!)
- Adding two more regular swings. (For less waiting time and turn taking which equals more fun!)
- Planting a cherry, pear, and apple tree (To continue the wealth of gardening knowledge for our individuals and even some staff. Learning is so very important! It is even more fun when our individuals can see a project from start to finish and even get to eat some of it at the end!)
- Maybe another type of basketball hoop and another shade option (if money allows)
