The only problem, that is not a Kolache. In fact, nothing Shipleys sells is considered a Kolache.

Not even debatable….

Yea I prefer the more authentic jalapeno sausage cheese kolaches from kolache factory to be honest.

Maybe they look at you weird for reasons other than what you refer to a Czech pastry? Dont know, you would have to ask them.

But me being a dork, i own it. But me being a dork has nothing to do with what others mistakenly call a Czech pastry.


Buh vam zehnej a dobrou noc

i work in marketing and have some contacts with Kolache Factory. Would you be willing to be a brand influencer as an authentic Check kinfolk or whatever?

On a side note, what is "Yak Say Mas" actually about? What's up with a Yak saying more but in Spanish? You Check people have some sort of weird Tibetan hook up with Yaks or what? What's the Mex-to-Tibet connect via Check?

Per AI

A kolache is a type of sweet pastry, originally from the Czech Republic, typically made with a soft, yeast-based dough and a sweet filling like fruit, poppy seed paste, or cream cheese. In Texas, the term has also been used for a related pastry, the klobasnek, which is a savory pastry with a sausage and cheese filling, often with jalapeños.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Traditional Czech Kolache:
Dough: Soft, sweet yeast dough.
Filling: Typically fruit (e.g., apricot, prune, cherry), poppy seed paste, or cream cheese.
Shape: Often circular or square with a rounded indentation in the center for the filling.
Compared to: Similar to a Danish pastry.
Texas Kolache (including Klobasnek):
Traditional Kolache (Czech Style):
The original sweet pastry with fruit, cheese, or poppyseed filling.
Klobasnek (Texan Sausage Kolache):
A variation featuring a savory filling of sausage (and sometimes cheese or jalapeños). While often called a kolache in Texas, it is technically a separate pastry called klobasnek in Czech.
Shape:
Can vary, but often resembles a pig-in-a-blanket with the dough wrapped around the sausage.
Popularity:
Kolaches are a beloved breakfast staple in Texas, with many bakeries specializing in both traditional and Texan versions.


So us Czechs can have our Kolaches and you mestka Texans can have your adulterated Kolache.

Both very enjoyable with my preference of apricot or cottage cheese.

What is that gibberish? And yea of course they do it's in their name, like the sausage egg and cheese kolaches. Not as big a fan personally but I know plenty of folks like them.

The Asian run Southern Maid near me is WAY better than the Shipley's that went in across the street. Not even close.

They also sell kolaches and breakfast tacos.

I could get on board with Trump claiming the Czech Republic and wiping out the native tongue just so I never have to listen to a kolache dork try to "out authentic" everyone about a breakfast pastry ever again!

Can't believe kolache guy still exists and that he made an appearance here.

Fajita guy can't be far behind.

Maybe we'll get an appearance by "My grandmother is cajun, Italian etc. so I know what's authentic" guy for the trifecta.

It always delights me that you people take what has always been referred to as a kolache so damn seriously. It really warms my heart that you get so spun up about it that it raises your blood pressure. Here's a little secret, no one gives a damn about your ****ty Eastern European heritage. Dorks indeed.

My great grand parents only spoke Czech, so growing up we had to learn or naturally "learned".

Not many people no longer exist to speak with and admit my Czech has become rusty, in fact very rusty.

Yes, i do how to use google translate, in fact i use it to make sure i do not completely butcher the spelling. Never read or wrote Czech so spelling is very difficult.

To this day my mother meets me and says her farewells in Czech.


So spanem bohem dobru noc was said every evening leaving my grandparents home. Didn't need google translate for that one.

Good read BBQ.

My mom's side of the family is Czech. Farm on the Bernard prairie between East Bernard and Wallis.

I grew up on Grandma's kolache (personal favorites were the cream cheese or poppyseed). She mixed the ingredients in the same 70+ year old clay bowl. Man I miss her kolache.

On speaking Czech, grandma's sentences were always a mix of English and Czech. Helped me learn the language a bit.

That plus 6 AM Czech spoken only mass at the Wallis church. Try being a 6 kid and staying awake during that.

So my family is Greek and Irish. If we throw some feta and potato into a roll, can we call that a kolache? Or is that a klobasnek? Am I doing it right?

Yikes - this thread got weird.

Do like me a glazed Shipley - as well as a ham and cheese fat pill (jalapenos would go so hard with the H&C)

There's a Tim Horton's in Stafford and they have exceptional coffee. Shipley always rolled out the Colombian coffee crystals and this is probably why they sold.

I have said many times that if Shipleys had invested in better coffee they would have sealed off this market for a couple more decades. Their coffee is just terrible.

The other thing that seems a missed opportunity is why not serve some kind of lunch? It wouldn't be too difficult to bake some bread and sell some cold sandwiches. Why stop the revenue at 1100? I am sure they could find some other illegals to exploit for the lunchtime.

The pepper jack sausage kolache at Buc-ee's was the tits but it's gone the way of the dodo bird.

As for calling meat and bread as kolaches being a sin, I hope those same people order sliced grilled chicken breast at Mexican restaurants and don't order chicken or mixed fajitas.

Would only be fair and righteous if you're gonna die on that hill.

Yep, kolache dorks are often the same as the "there is no such thing as a chicken or shrimp fajita!!!!" dorks.

Nobody - absolutely nobody - outside of your circle of dorks cares. Nobody.

I also hope those people don't call just any sterile adhesive bandage a "band-aid", because that, too, would be factually incorrect.

Until the kolache dorks united and started preaching their crap on Texags, I had never heard of anybody ever throwing a tantrum calling a sausage or ham and cheese or boudin or brisket kolache a kolache - because the vast majority of the world calls them a kolache. Because they are a kolache in common modern vernacular.

I'm also German and generally don't care what inferior countries call their food. I'll just blitzkreig right over them anyway.

I suggest ignoring the Irish part when it comes to anythign food. Greek is marginal, so focus on that.

Maybe an olive and mutton kolache? Drizzled with EVOO for the creme de la creme.

Same with the ham and cheese kolaches.

I maybe have had a half dozen kolaches from there since they got rid of the best ones.
