My Dad grew up in Racine, Wi. He used to always tell me that they made the most wonderful Danish desserts (and also very good kielbasa type meats)

 

 

I think I'll google that number and order a Kringle! :-)

Truthfully, I don't think you will be sorry.  They are wonderful.  I think these are probably the best commercial kringles in the US, IMO.  If you go on their site, and read about making kringles, it is amazing how many days it tkes to make them.  There are dozens of layers,!

I like them all but am a fan of Bendtsten's beause they seem to have less icing. I do really like the cinnamon flavor from O&H. The new store and bakery is close to my mother's.

I live in Racine, and they are so much better fresh and ordered directly from O &H Bakery. Another good bakery to try here in Racine is Bendtsen's, their crust is carmelized and flaky-so good!!!!!!!

I love the Kringles that Trader Joes carries at holidays. Had the almond one last year around Christmas, and a pecan one this past Easter. Both delicious. I buy several, cut them up and freeze and they are wonderful to pull out as needed.  This year I will buy even more!  Of course, I surely don't need the extra calories but I can't resist ..ha ha.

Darn - did not know that TJ carrries them during Easter. I learned about them on the boards last year and tried the almond one during Christmas. Which prompted me to go get another one a week later. Delicious. I have to try the pumpkin one this year. I was too late for the pumplin last year.

A made in America treat. Some of the tour bus companies in my area offer trips to the Racine, WI kringle factory.
