What could be more delicious than juicy plum kolaches? No matter whether leisure, work or sports. Just take them with you and when you get hungry, bite into them and enjoy. Especially in the autumn season when the plums are ripe, then it lends itself to bake a lot with this wonderful fruit.

Kolaches are small, flat pieces of dough filled with various sweet fillings. The fillings can be varied and range from jam to custard or fruit. My pastries are filled with pudding and with plums.
