There are multiple ways to order cheesecake. Order online here: Order Form.<\/a> Orders may also be made from Alpha Kappa Psi\u2019s Facebook page or by contacting any Alpha Kappa Psi member.<\/p>\n

The deadline for cheesecake orders is on Oct. 6, in the Center for Student Involvement office located in the Memorial Union lower level room 016. Late orders can be accepted within reason of that week.<\/p>\n

This is the first time that Sarah Polifka, owner of Chestnut Street Kitchens, has ever worked with Alpha Kappa Psi. Polifka\u2019s shop has been around for two years, but she\u2019s only been making and selling cheesecakes for Chestnut Street Kitchens for one year.<\/p>\n

“We’re excited to work with the business,\u201d said Taylor. “A lot of people had told me about a lot of great things about her. Her cheesecake is phenomenal, it tastes great.”<\/p>\n

Cheesecake-making has deep roots in Polifka\u2019s past. She\u2019s been making them for years.<\/p>\n

“My sister bought me a recipe book and we have a lot of family functions,\u201d said Polifka. \u201cSo I started making them for family functions.”<\/p>\n

Chestnut Street Kitchens has other specialties besides cheesecake, including varieties of coffee beans, salsas, dip mixes, cake mixes, teas, bath and body products, and assortments of gifts.<\/p>\n

The money raised for Alpha Kappa Psi goes toward their general fraternity functions and helps pay for future events and activities.<\/p>\n

Chestnut Street Kitchens is located on 1310 Main Street, in the downtown district of Hays. To contact the shop, call (785) 625-4945, or visit the Facebook page under Chestnut Street Kitchens.<\/p>\n
