West York Area School District second-graders at Lincolnway Elementary recently participated in a unique writing activity coordinated by teacher Christine McKee.
The class was paired with Emingee's Fastnachts and Coffee, located at Morningstar Market in Thomasville, and tasked with creating a new doughnut flavor and submitting a persuasive writing piece about why their idea was the best.
Bakery co-owner Melanie Cornman read the 24 entries and chose the ideas presented by students Jaydaci Phillips and Brianna Lindenmuth. The student-created doughnut flavors were made and sold at the bakery on May 30 and 31. Jaydaci and Brianna were recognized on May 31.
Jaydaci's entry was called "Holy Sweet Cannoli" and based on a dessert from her favorite pizza shop. The powdered doughnut features a sweet cannoli cream filling with a drizzle of caramel and miniature chocolate chips on top. Brianna's entry was called "The Minty" and based on mint chocolate chip ice cream and chocolate mints. The chocolate doughnut features green mint icing and miniature chocolate chips on top.
