Best Kolaches
If you are ever near West, TX, do yourself a favor and pick up some kolaches from the Czech Stop. Best kolaches outside of homemade!
Just to clarify... a Czech kolache has the fruit on top. Big city folks seem to think a kolache has meat in it. Such as sausage. That is called a Pig or a Pig in a Blanket. [:D]

My vote is for Prasek's Hillje Smokehouse between Houston & Victoria.
Kolaches, Kasekies, Sausage Bread Loaf. Pies, Cakes and Jerky galore.
[:p][:p][:p]
I've eaten their's many a time. Good stuff. Also love their peppered turkey jerky, but it is expensive.0 -
Their jalapeno cheese summer sausage is good too. 0 -
I love Kolache!
I'm half Bohemia/Czech. My Grandma used to make them for me all the time!
Poppy seed and Apricot are my favorites. Followed by Cherry.
If I'm ever in that area, I'm stopping! Thanks for the tip!0 -
Thought this post was about Koflak's. Plastic Mtn'eering Boots. 0 -
My wife's family is Czech so I am spoiled.
Kolaches don't have meat and are always fruit on top.
Southeast South Dakota is Czech country. The world famous Czech Days in Tabor SD is a pretty big deal in this state.0 -
Mom makes them. I like the cottage cheese ones then poppy seed. 0 -
The best are the ones your Czech Grandma made. Period. Grandma Hodulik made mine, but she's been gone for nearly 40 years now. 0 -
I stop there every time on my way up to Arkansas from San Antonio

Delicious Memories from my childhood!![:p]
Our next door neighbor was a very old Bohemian widow woman (Mrs. Kuntz) who made kolaches using stewed prunes from plums she grew on her farm.
I remember she did not frost them but covered them with powdered sugar.
Ohhhh they were goooooooooood![:p]0 -
At least West, Texas is in west Texas. If it were in NY it would be on east Long Island. 0 -
Kolches, danish, turnovers...many cultures have a similar pastry with their own name attached. Taken to an industrialized junk food extreme, we have PopTarts. 0 -
They even come in US rations, where they are called "Filled Bakery Item." The factory mylar PT package is overwrapped in a retort pouch to keep it "fresh" longer. 0 -
Green's Sausage House in Zabcikville, TX has some that are just as good or better than the ones in West. I like the poppy seed ones. Their sausage burgers and dry cured bacon are great too. 0 -
Sounds like Toaster Strudels to me. Which is no a bad thing. 0 -
Comparing a homemade kolache to a Pop Tart or a Toaster Strudel is like comparinh a p p young Raquel Welch with Rosie O'Donnell! [:0]
Crap'n auto sensor will not let me write c.o.m.p.a.rinh a p p young Raquel Welch...[:(!]0 -
Actually, that is a good simile:
A Kolache is to a Pop Tart as Raquel Welch is to Rosie O'Donnell.0 -
