My husband says their ginger cookies are the closest he has ever found to his Swedish grandmother’s cookies, my friend Joyce says even if you don’t like fruitcake, you will like theirs. I love the German chocolate cake with caramel filling and no coconut. All this and more is available at The Jampot, a tiny shop run by monks that is tucked away in the quiet grandeur of the Keweenaw Peninsula . Along with chocolate candy and baked goods, The Jampot sells myriad varieties of jellies, jams and preserves. There are common flavors like grape, wine jellies, combinations like wild apple chokecherry, and unusual varieties like the unique UP thimbleberry jam. We found this a great place to buy gifts, as well as stock up for ourselves. The Jampot is located on M 26 near Eagle River. The Jampot is opened May thru early October. Just east of The Jampot is their onion domed monastery with fabulous flowers surrounding it.
