    JoJo's Pretzels

    Levi and Joanna King started selling pretzels here in 1989, out of a recipe from their Amish family kitchen, and they have been making them the same way ever since. Original, cinnamon sugar, parmesan, garlic, and ranch. Dips run from cheddar and pizza sauce to icing, Nutella, and Amish peanut butter. They also make their own mustards and root beer. If you want to learn how it is done, they teach classes for six dollars a person, groups of ten to thirty. Their kids Mariah and Jaimeson run more of it every year, and there is a second shop now in Goshen.

    Known forHand rolled soft pretzels, and a fair claim to having put Shipshewana on the map. Ranked the number one restaurant in town on TripAdvisor.
