The holidays is a time to gather with family, count your blessings and … oh, stuff your face with sweet treats!
That’s why for this week’s “5 to Try” we’re asking for readers to tell us where to find the sweetest holiday treats in Johnson County.
Some local bakeries whip up special holiday-themed cookies and desserts.
Other places save this time of year to put out special-order fruit cakes, mince pies and more.
Or you may just want some good old fashioned holiday candy.
Wherever your sweet tooth leads you, we’d like to know.

We typically take recommendations up through Wednesday of each week.
To send us your “5 to Try” suggestions this week and each week after this, you can:
- Email ideas to stories@shawneemissionpost.com,
- Send us messages on Facebook, Twitter or on Instagram,
- Or comment at the bottom of this post.
Each Friday, we’ll publish our readers’ suggestions for what made it into our “5 to Try.”
