How We Make Kringles
- Lehmann's Kringle is made fresh
daily, starting from scratch in our own kitchen. To
achieve the flaky texture and sensational flavor of our
famous authentic recipe, a time-honored procedure must be
followed.
-
- Layer upon layer of fresh
golden Wisconsin creamery butter is folded and rolled
into the pastry dough. For three days, it is rolled and
folded and cured in the cooler at 40 degrees. This
process is repeated twice, producing over 140
folds.
A mixture of brown sugar and
butter is spread on the rich dough, and the filling is
added. The edges of the dough are stretched, shaped,
folded and tucked into an oval shape. A batch of 240
kringles is baked at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Kringles
are honey-glazed before rich creamy sugar or chocolate
icing is applied. After cooling, Kringles are packaged in
bakery bags and are now ready to be
enjoyed.
-
- Our mail order department
started in the 1960s when former Racine residents, now
relocated around the country, desired fresh Kringles.
Racine companies also learned that the best Christmas
gift was fresh Kringle from Lehmann's bakery.
This tremendous appreciation
caused the mail order business to flourish, and we now
make thousands of Kringles weekly -- up to 5,000 a day
during the holidays!
