Two Michigan traditions

Fudge made by hand at the mill.

Beside the Clinton River lies Yates Cider Mill, a water-powered mill and one of Metro Detroit’s oldest traditions. Yates is known for making its own premium apple cider, irresistible donuts, and other seasonal favorites.

Frankenmuth Fudge Kitchen is proud to add handmade fudge to the Yates experience. On select weekends, you can watch one of our fudge makers prepare a batch in the Yates kitchen and enjoy a fresh sample right off the marble slab.
