A popular favorite is stuffed with sausage and cheese, but in Texas you can find versions made with ham, bacon or chorizo — and occasionally a few jalapenos.
Some kolaches contain cream cheese, and the traditional fruit-filled ones are delicious as a breakfast tartlet or dessert.
Kolache Haven (owner Mike Boyle) is located next to Candy Haven at 301 N. Interstate 35E.
The Guinness World Record record for the largest sausage weighed 18.98 tonnes (41,859 lb) and was made by J.J. Tranfield on behalf of Asda Stores Plc, at Sheffield, South Yorkshire, UK.
