Still don’t know what a kolache is? Here’s a recap:

Kolaches, pronounced koh-lah-chees, were born in Czechoslovakia centuries ago when a young girl nabbed some soft, sweet bread dough from her mom, added plums and tossed it in the oven. Her dad grabbed one for a snack and when he took a bite, the hot plum juice made him circle like a wheel in delight. The Czech word for wheel is “kola” – so the kolache was born. It became a tasty and beloved treat throughout Eastern Europe and arrived in America in the 1850’s when Czech settlers came to Texas. By the 1900’s, the Czech settlers were holding yearly celebrations to honor their beloved culinary treat - the kolache.

It didn’t take long for kolaches to get a Texan twist, so now the sweet pastries are filled with savory meats, cheeses and spices, perfect as an on-the-go snack for any meal or business meeting. Texas natives John and Jerri Banks took the Texanized-kolache coast-to-coast when they began franchising Kolache Factory. Now everyone can enjoy the old-world favorite that is putting the fun back into your morning pastry run.
