I saw this article the other day, you know what bugs me about it? First time I heard the word kalache was when I moved to Texas and stop in central Texas and one of those Czech bakeries and they had a sign that said “kolache” in front of a sausage roll... I think the author of this blog needs to stop and check who’s perpetuating the misuse of the word.

I have had more than one Czech Belt Texas tell me that Kolache were the open faced pastry filled with cheese or fruit, but if they were open faced with sausage they were still Kolache.
Klobasneky were the pigs in the blanket style pastry with meat and or cheese rolled inside of the pastry.
What say you Czech Texans?

I just think its funny no one mentioned the fact that an individual one is called a kolach. I hadn't had one before we moved here but what slavik influence/knowledge I knew made me want to call one a kolach. I was repeatedly and vehemently corrected by Houstonians that it's always "cole-aw-chee".

My first experience with a “kolache” was when I was about 8-9 we hunted a place in Beeville and would drive down 59 through Hilljie on our way. We always stopped at Hilljie smokehouse and got loads of stuff but my favorite was always the Turkey Jerky and a Kolache. These Kolaches we bread squares filled with fruit and crumble on top. I always got a Apricot one if they had one. Years went by and one day heard the term kolache and I was very excited to get one but was disappointed when I realized it was what I knew as a pig in blanket. Ever since, kolache has been a PIB and very seldom have I ever seen another “fruit kolache”. My mouth is watering thinking about the Hilljie smoke house right now, why did I have to read this thread...
