Our Cherry Almond Kringle is at Trader Joe's

Hello friends, it’s Ohlaf the Baker.

Okay so I need to talk about a Kringle that genuinely turns first timers into people who come back every single year.  It’s our Cherry Almond Kringle.  One of our best selling holiday flavors (yes, Christmas morning people go absolutely crazy for this one) and this summer it’s back for a limited time.

Let me tell you what’s actually in this thing.  We start with freshly picked Montmorency cherries from the historic orchards of Door County, Wisconsin.  Then we pair the cherry filling with smooth, rich almond paste right in the center of the pastry.  Our bakers wrap all of that inside 36 layers of flaky, buttery Kringle pastry, bake it golden brown, and finish it with a drizzle of vanilla icing.  It’s one of those flavor combos that just works every single time.  No notes.

Now here’s the important part.  This summer, our Cherry Almond Kringle is available only at your local Trader Joe’s.  Not in our O&H stores.  Not on our website.  Trader Joe’s only.  We love working with them because they take quality just as seriously as we do, which means more of you can grab one without having to plan ahead or place an order.  Just throw it in your cart next time you’re already there.

Summer moves fast, you guys know this.  The cookouts, the cabin weekends, the random “come over we’re grilling” texts at 4pm on a Saturday.  You don’t always have time to think about dessert.  But if you’ve already got a Cherry Almond Kringle sitting there ready to go, you are so covered.  Bring it to a picnic or just keep it for a slow morning on the porch with your coffee.  Honestly it works for all of it.

So yeah.  Head to your local Trader Joe’s, grab one while they last, and share it with the people who make your summer worth having.

Here’s to a great one.
