What's a Kolache?

Our kolaches are a slightly sweet, pastry roll filled with a variety of ingredients ranging from fruit to cheese to meat.

What is the origin of the Kolache?

The kolache comes from Czechoslovakia. Originally it was a circular pastry made of double risen dough, in which, the center was topped or filled with poppyseed, cottage cheese, pineapple, apricot or prunes. Kolaches were made from a formula handed down from generation to generation within a Czech family and no one used an actual written recipe.

Are your Kolaches baked fresh?

Yes, our Kolaches are baked fresh every morning.

What is the best way to store and reheat my Kolaches?

A Kolache will keep in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. For 1-2 kolaches, microwave 10-15 seconds; 3-4 microwave 15-20 seconds; 5-6 microwave 25-30 seconds. It’s best to microwave in 5 to 10 second increments, ensuring you check the temperature each time, rather than cooking them for long periods. Over microwaving a kolache will cause it to harden.
