Bohemian sweet bun with a soft enriched dough and a dimple of filling: poppy seed, plum jam, sweet curd cheese or apricot. Round, palm-sized, baked golden on top.
Kolache (kolac) date back to medieval Bohemia, originally a wedding cake the entire village shared. By the 19th century they had shrunk to individual buns. The poppy-seed kolach (mak) is the canonical Czech version; the curd-cheese version (tvaroh) is the Moravian alternative. Eska and Antonin Bakery bake the modern Prague version daily; the Saturday Naplavka stalls sell the rural family version. The Texan kolache descended from Czech immigrants in the 1850s in central Texas (West, Texas remains the home), where it diverged toward a savoury sausage-stuffed form that is unrecognisable to Bohemians.
