The Original Nut Roll "Kolachi" - Large 24oz+

Try our new and improved Kolachi Cookies!

(A smaller version of our large rolls. May also be available in their close cousin the Italian Nut Horn.)

This roll is made with our fresh homemade dough & walnut filling. Each roll weighs a minimum of 1.5 lbs (24oz), almost twice the size of some of our competitors.

Quality Ingredients
Our nut rolls are homemade from scratch in small batches, just like our Grandparents did!  We use ingredients you can pronounce - eggs, flour, sugar, and of course... butter! What you would consider real food.  No artificial ingredients, fillers, additives, or preservatives. Great baked goods start with the best ingredients, and there is no substitute for the flavor of real butter!

More Filling Please!
Have you ever cut a nut roll in half and wondered where the filling is? Is it nothing but bread? Making every roll as if we were going to eat it, we like more filling than dough... so that's exactly how we make them! By weight, there is actually more filling in each roll than dough! This makes it very soft and moist, never dry. Walnuts are actually the number one ingredient! We grind fresh walnuts to make our filling. The walnuts are ground straight into our mixing bowl. They don't come in already ground, or sit around and dry out. They are made into filling, spread on dough, and off to the oven.

And let's talk more about Butter...
As you would expect from the name, we use real butter. No blends that call themselves butter. Blends contain cheap vegetable oils such as margarine and shortening, which are almost always "hydrogenated" or "partially hydrogenated". They are otherwise known as the very harmful "trans fats" you hear about, and they have no business being in any nut roll! You've probably heard all the bad about margerine and shortening, but we bet you didn't know that real butter contains vitamins, minerals, and fatty acids that protect against heart disease and cancer.

Storage
All rolls come vacuum sealed. This makes a great difference keeping the rolls as fresh as possible. We know some customers cringe when they hear "freezer" in the same sentence with baked goods, but... Since no chemical additives or preservatives are in our rolls, freezing is the best natural preservative. They may be stored in the freezer for up to a year if vacuum sealed, and up to 6 months if not vacuum sealed but wrapped well.  Compare to a high processed commercial roll, containing preservatives to keep them fresh. What are you keeping fresh? They are filled with very little real flavor, heavy on fillers, artificial flavors & colors - to make them look and taste like real food.
