Each year our Sisterhood sells professionally baked hamantaschen and rugelach to make Purim celebrations extra-sweet. Why slave in the kitchen when Sisterhood can deliver the goods without any extra hassle?
No order is too big or too small... place your order early to ensure you get the quantity and flavors you desire. The pre-order deadline has passed, but limited supplies will be available for purchase on Sunday, March 16.
Orders can be picked up during the Purim Carnival at Temple. We do always order extra baked goods, so if you did not place an order in advance, you are welcome to drop in and shop.
