Record ‘Cherry-Thing-A-Ling’ sales reported in 2019

Batesville, In. — The 2019 “Cherry-Thing-A-Ling” numbers are in and the folks at Schmidt’s Bakery set another record.

This year, 145,440 of the sweet treats were sold amounting to 12,120 dozens.  In 2018 118,910 or more than 9,900 dozen were sold.

“This started as a one-time promotion on a Sunday in the 1970’s and then turned into tradition. We are blessed to have the community embrace this and look forward to it every year, this is something that makes Batesville exciting,” said owner Bertie Schmidt.

The longtime tradition will return February 13-18, 2020.
