We had to make another visit to Wimberger’s Bakery and Deli. It’s always a treat, I picked up some Bienenstich for dessert tonight along sweets for later.

Visiting our daughter in Colorado Springs and she suggested Edelweiss German Restaurant for dinner. From Rouladen to Bratwurst and Bier, everything was sehr gut!

I forgot to post that I sold out yesterday, despite the weather (still glad for the rain). Thanks to those who braved the rain. Prost!

One 6 1/2’ rope of 🥨 dough makes a 1 kilo (2.2lb) pretzel. In order to fit it in the oven, it has to be braided. This will be a prize at Barking Armadillo Oktoberfest on Saturday.
The two 4ft ropes made decent size pretzels that are about .5 kilo. It was fun to do this again and I’m looking forward to see y’all on Saturday!

I’ve created a YouTube channel to show how I bake in my home kitchen. Most of the videos are going to be German recipes that I’ve found in cookbooks or websites and a few that are family recipes.
Please watch and subscribe and I’ll continue to create more. Thank you for supporting me as I continue to grow and explore!

In this video I demonstrate how I make Brezeln (Bavarian style pret...

Six years ago, I started TexBrötchen German Bakery with a dream and way too much flour on my apron. Today, I'm sharing some bittersweet news: I decided to close my little cottage bakery..
This wasn't an easy decision. This bakery has been so much more than a business — it's been early mornings, flour-dusted memories, and getting to know so many of you over coffee and Kuchen. I'm endlessly grateful for every person who placed orders and those who came to pop-up events, every regular who became a friend, and every celebration I got to be a small part of.
I'm stepping away to spend more time with my family and to dive into a new chapter: content creation. It's a chance to slow down, be present, and explore a different kind of creativity — one I can share from home.
Thank you for six incredible years. I hope you'll follow along on this next adventure — I'm not going far, just changing lanes. 💛

I'll post a link to my YouTube channel "Baking with Opa" soon with hopes that you'll follow me as I explore new recipes and meet other bakers. Stay tuned!
