Carmel Christkindlmarkt

One of the most magical things to do in Carmel during the holidays is visiting the Christkindlmarkt. The Carmel Christkindlmarkt is a charming authentic German Christmas market that takes over Carter Green, where the Farmers Market is typically held.

The Christkindlmarkt resembles those that line the streets throughout Germany with a custom Gluhwein Pyramid and a variety of vendors selling traditional German gifts. Smells of roasted nuts, bratwurst, and other delicious foods fill the air.

Watch ice skaters glide throughout the glistening rink to the sounds of carols before warming up with a decadent Belgium Hot Chocolate. Special appearances from Christkind, Sankt Nikolaus, Grimm’s fairy tale princesses, and Santa make visiting the market more magical.

Cake Bake Shop By Gwendolyn Rodgers

The Cake Bake Shop appears to have flown off the pages of The Nutcracker and into Carmel, Indiana. Guests feel like they have entered the magical land of sweets. With glittery cocktails to dazzling entrees, save room for their signature cake slices.

They offer a carry-out bakery for those who don’t want the dine-in experience. You can place your order ahead of time or browse the cases, then make your selections.
