They are great, but when I visited New Prague in southern Minnesota and went to a spot famous for its kolaches, I was disappointed. Indeed, all the little "Czech" bakeries around the famous old place made kolaches which were frankly insipid. They were like kaiser rolls injected with jelly. Dreadful. A good kolach is shapped like like a pyramid and filled with fruit (raisins etc) and even poppyseeds. Great stuff if made by people in touch with their past. Doug
