O&H Danish Bakery

I ordered this Danish lawyer cake for my husband for his birthday. I brought it up to the Dells area was having a birthday party for my husband. Was so excited to serve this cake and let everybody know who have not had it before. How delicious O each bakery is. This is the second danish layer that I have received this way within the past seven months. The frosting was thicker than the cake. I chilled the cake in the refrigerator and when I took it out to cut it, the pile of frosting in the picture is what broke off the cake as I was cutting it. Big chunks fell off. It was the most disgusting dessert I have ever served anyone and I can’t talk about how embarrassed I was! I let O&H know about this instead of refunding me for the cake they gave me rewards points on my reward account. Like big deal I paid almost $39 for the cake. After all the hassle of not being able to get this satisfied with me, she then decided to give me a tort. That was after the fact. Needless to say, I will not be back to own a bakery. I’d rather choose Benson’s.

Pumpkin Caramel Kringle: A Kringle is a large circular Danish pastry with flaky dough, covered in icing, & filled with fruit, nut, or other more unique flavors. After doing a little research I’ve learned that sadly, Kringles are not widely spread throughout the U.S. It turns out that Racine, WI is actually the epicenter for Kringles. O&H Danish Bakery opened in 1949 and has been family owned for four generations. Did you know Kringle is the official state pastry of Wisconsin? This one is filled with a sweet and delicious pumpkin puree and topped with a drizzle of caramel icing and sprinkling of pecans. The pastry has just the right amount of chewiness to it and is also a little flaky like a croissant. O&H does not skimp on the filling as there is plenty of pumpkin hiding inside. Personally, I found pumpkin was the strongest flavor, but it's accompanied by cinnamon and a nuttiness (from the pecans). Caramel was the least noticeable as it came off as mostly a generic sweetness on my tastebuds. Personally, I don't care for nuts on my desserts, so I would be fine if it didn't come with pecans. Although I would have liked more caramel and less pecans, pumpkin is the most important factor, and this was a phenomenal pumpkin dessert! Doughboy approved Doughboy_Food_Reviews

Everything there is great. It's all freshly made there. I never had a kringle, so I bought one and it was awesome, so I stopped on my way home to New Hampshire to buy a couple more, put them in my cooler.

They have Kringles, but a lot are the same flavor. I thought they would have more of an assortment, even on danishes and donuts. No glazed donuts just thick icing donuts. Did have some plain donuts and a few twists. Did get an assortment but most everyone scraped the thick icing off.

This just became my favorite bakery and replacing my favorite of 30+ years. The bee sting was heaven. They also have wonderful gifts and the staff was so patient. They have Kringle in every flavor.

I ordered by mail a pecan danish Kringle. It was rather disappointing, the pastry was good but a little thin for my taste, the pecan filling had ground pecans I guess because it lacked crunch and the pecan flavor was lacking. In my opinion, it didn’t have enough pecans , it was extremely sweet and on top of that, it had a sugary glaze. Overall didn’t enjoy it Not planning to reorder.

Updated Review - 3/16/24: Delicious donuts! Incredibly fresh bread. Everything from O&H Danish Bakery is always wonderful. I love this place!!! Yum! ———————— Updated Review - 1/20/24: My wife surprised me this morning with some O&H donuts… all of my favorite! Actually, she could have brought me any kind of donut from O&H… I would have eaten it. I love everything from O&H… the donuts, kringles, and all the products they sell. They are all yummy! ——————— We love O&H Danish Bakery! It is the best place to by donuts, kringles, and a variety of baked goods. They even have items like soup, dips, egg salad…. and numerous other fun food in the freezer. The staff is polite, friendly, and helpful. There is plenty of parking and the store is always clean. We highly recommend O&H Bakery!

I ordered a layered carrot cake, because their carrot cake is the absolute best and I've been craving it for weeks, and this is what I got! I didn't specify any of the decorations since, as I mentioned earlier, I just wanted to eat it, and the decorator still went all out! I almost didn't want to cut it, the cake was so beautiful. My mom even said that she hasn't seen such pretty cake decorations in years! So thank you so much to whoever decorated this cake, and also to the people who made it! I'm beyond happy with this experience! :D

Every once in awhile you'll see a kringle sold anywhere but here. Don't do it even if it's mail order. You usually get it in 2 days anyway. I have restrained myself in the Twin Cities with the monthly themed kringles. Never around Valentine's day with the heart shaped cherry kringle and I'm already eying St. Patrick's day. They also have cakes, coffee cakes and various other pastries. Get on the mailing list. The Mardi Gras holiday is out now, too with the King Cake Kringle and an assortment of paczki. The packaging is perfect as well. I like Racine anyway and should put this on my bucket list to visit.

We received a Danish Kringle as a gift this Christmas and it was amazing! Usually food gifts in the mail we will try but never really love... But the Danish Kringle was out of this world! It was fresh, flaky and sweet. It warmed up so perfectly in the oven and was a great holiday treat. We will be ordering as gifts for our clients next year! They are out of this world.

Been enjoying O&H Kringle all my life. Moved away and we come back a few times a year , and Kringle from O&H are always the priority to take back home out of state. Sadly today, something has changed. Changed so much this will no longer be a stop. I am hoping it's just a fluke, but look, texture and taste all around is not the same. Doughy, not flakey, different frosting,Oily, different sweet. I am not sure but I think the price was lower, i would rather have them raise the price, I'll pay $20 all day vs. $11 for what I bought today. That won't happen again. Going to compare more in depth with the couple I still have in my freezer at home. I will change my review if maybe be some odd chance it's just me and indulged too much into my favorite kenosha\racine foods this trip. But a few others with me agreed. Not the same at all.

Saw this place online being featured and wanted to check it out. I've had their pecan Kringle from Trader Joe's but wanted to try some other flavors. I tried the cherry and was a little disappointed with the cherriness of it. Lacked that sweet and tart flavor that you look for in a cherry desert. However still good Kringle!

I recently had the worst week imaginable, but let me tell you how Kaylee at O and H completely turned it around! Donuts have always been a wonderful treat for me, but Kaylee took it to the next level. She didn't just pick out any chocolate donut--she chose THE best one and added even more chocolate! Can you believe that? Extra chocolate on an already perfect donut! If you're looking for the best donut place, with the best donuts, and now the best server--ASK FOR KAYLEE! She totally gets it. Thanks, O and H, and a huge shoutout to Kaylee! You both rock!"

O&H did not honor their promised shipping timeline, product did not arrive for the holiday, and customer service said it is not their responsibility.

There is nothing special about the product I received from this bakery. The icing is sickening sweet and horrible.

Awesome Kringle and selection of them. Nice staff. I'd go back again Enjoy the baked goods!

I was visiting Racine and I HAD to try the Kringle if you are visiting from out of state it is a MUST go good food, wonderful friendly service, and very good vibes! 100% recommend

Grew up with O&H Kringle. I married a man from Oklahoma, and now his whole family is hooked, too! Almond will always be my favorite flavor, but the Wisconsin is a close second, and their new Whiskey flavor is fabulous!

I absolutely love this bakery and all of its different locations! Their donuts and pastries are always SOOOO delicious. Me and my family always get donuts for breakfast from here! Their service is also excellent and they are so nice. It's possibly one of my favorite bakery's in town!

Updating my review to reflect their efforts to make things right. While I am still not happy with my initial interaction with their CSR, I am awarding them an additional star, due to the fact that the director of customer service reached out to me to apologize and refund my money for the late shipment.

O&H my! Go here. Authentic bakery serving the community. Staff knows their business. They are famous for the Kringles. We got the Apple but they have more flavors than Baskin-Robbins! I also got the rugbrød, a dense seeded Scandinavian bread great for open-faced sandwiches. We also experienced the Scandinavian Dream Cake which was outstanding. A simple moist vanilla cake with a light caramelized frosting and a dusting of coconut. Pretty much the best thing in the world you can eat for $2.25.

My husband surprised me with these for Christmas. I had never heard of them before, and I absolutely love cheese danishes, so these were perfect for me. My husband got me the cream cheese one and the cinnamon bun one. The cream cheese one was the one we made first. I actually think it could have used more cream cheese. It was good. Maybe even very good. But for the cost of it, I was expecting better. It did smell very good in the oven, and again, was really good. But not the best danish (kringle) I've ever had. We made the cinnamon one a week or so later. That one was actually better! Much more cinnamon in it. I wish the cheese one had that much cheese in it. We both preferred that one. And my husband does not even like sweet stuff, and liked both of these. There are some reviews that complain about these being too sweet, which really made me laugh. If you are eating these expecting anything other than a sweet delicious treat, you are trying the wrong thing! I would probably not buy these for myself, but I'd be fine with my husband getting them as a gift for me again. I would probably get the same two again and see if I have the same opinions next time.

This is the perfect spot to grab lunch while passing through. Sandwich was high quality and taking a Kringle home was a great decision

I stop by this bakery often. The baked goods are excellent. The Kringle, forget about it! So good. The staff is lovely. Have not been to another bakery for two years. Ordering the Thanksgiving Turkey cake again this year. Always a big hit with old and young. Kelly R.

Fantastic place with a variety of Kringle available! They make them in house and have many flavors. Not very expensive for the amount of Kringle you get! This is a Wisconsin must have if you're in the area!

Awesome bakery. A must stop when going thru the area. ............................................................:::::::::::::

Found there product at my local TJ's and want to give an extra shout out to the deliciousness Danish Kringle that is a MUST try!!! I've had both the cream cheese flavor and raspberry- both delicious but raspberry was my fav. It's like a stuff croissant donut with icing? It's flaky, buttery, gooey- honestly just so good. TJ's only carries certain seasonal flavors but you better keep an eye out because they don't always have it in stock! At $8-$10 per ring it's the perfect treat to share with friends or just yourself because it's THAT good!

I'm always happy when I visit an O&H Danish Bakery! I love every detail of this bakery. It is always bright and cheerful. Big windows allow tons of sunlight in. The store is always clean and tidy. They offer hand sanitizer upon arrival and it is easy to shop safely. The baked goods cannot be beat. I don't know what kind of magic happens in their kitchen but WOW! Everything I have tried is incredible. The coffee, cakes, donuts, bread and kringle are always fresh and delicious. The staff in all areas of the store are friendly and personable. They are helpful and answer all of my questions. My friend remarked that there were no Cyclops donuts and the woman behind the counter heard her. Immediately, she offered to make one for her. Now THAT is the epitome of customer service! * For those of you who do not live in Wisconsin, a Cyclops is a chocolate glazed donut with a big dollop of whipped cream in the center.* When I moved to Chicago I was shocked that Cyclops were not available. It must be a Wisconsin thing. If you are looking for a unique gift or want something special for yourself, you can find all sorts of cute things here. All of their items are displayed so nicely. I love looking around and usually pick a little something up in addition to my pastries and coffee. I love visiting O&H Danish Bakery whenever I am in town!

Huge. beautifully baked kringles in a wide variety of flavors Friendly customer service Best darned rugbrød in Wisconsin!

Where else do you go for authentic danish Kringle? Sad that they've done away with some items that I enjoyed but maybe there weren't enough of us to like say...English muffin bread to make it worthwhile to make. Idk. I think the O & H on Durand doesn't always have enough items on hand so towards late afternoon can be slim pickings. In the past could always count on them having certain items but now not as much. Regardless their bakery is real! No real ambiance. Just a nice, clean business to go to. Nice gift items too.

Awesome bakery ! Delicious .. professional.. friendly . Jewel in racine as far as bakeries go

Courteous,fast,service with a smile,and great ,fresh dounuts,with a wide variety.GOD Bless all of you

My heart will be forever broken that they discontinued the maple walnut kringles. I would go to the ends of the universe to get one.

Was always more of a "mass produced" bakery then a small feel bakery. Kringle selection is half what it used to be. Service isn't the same either. I'd say the quality of the bakery there is about the same as any grocery store now. Location and parking is about all this place has right now that's a plus. I'm sad to see it go downhill. It seems more about expansion and money now then quality and customer service. I stopped going here at this point.

Wisconsin is famous for Beer, Cheese, and Kringle, and having struck two of those off our list, we found ourselves in Racine seeking to make it a clean sweep. We did meta-review for this and decided on this very O&H location because of the stellar recommendations. We were definitely not misled. While the exterior of the establishment looked like a small industrial bakery straight out of the 1950s, we opened the door to reveal a wonderland of artfully arranged baked goods and gifts. There was even a little coffee bar, and we were advised of an incentive for the day of our visit of a free cup with purchase of a Kringle. Since that's exactly what brought us in, we figured it was a double-score. Only one problem remained, choosing a Kringle. These are not the tiny, single-serving pastries you usually pick up at your local bakery or panaderia, no, these kringles were family-sized ovals with a short-axis about the same length as my forearm, and the long-axis an entire hand more! We knew that we'd have to stick with just one, having only a couple days to finish the whole thing before boarding a flight back home, but some of the varieties made us seriously consider asking about the potential of options to ship... In the end, we got one that was called Wisconsin, consisting of a cherry and cranberry filling, and topped with cream cheese icing. We're pretty sure that those are walnuts in the image of our delightfully decadent dessert, though I don't think that's a usual topping for this divine creation... Regardless, we polished that whole thing off between the two of us over the course of about 2.5 days despite being completely convinced that it was far too much food. It kept pretty well for those few days, too, since the last bite was every bit as sweet/tart/creamy/flaky/buttery good at the first. We're still considering the option of trying to get one shipped out to us, since there's nothing like it in a 1000 mile radius from home. So good! Now if only they were closer... (Date of visit 03/22/2019)

So-so quality control and customer service, otherwise terrific. But from now on though, the next one I buy is going to be from Trader Joe's - you pick it up, $8. Or have it sent to you by them and pay big for quick shipping for the better part of $35.

Had the Viking Power breakfast sandwich and a lemon blueberry pastry. Both were sooooo delicious, perfectly done, and reasonably priced. Grabbed a big french bread loaf to enjoy later. Service was friendly. So many cute gift items! We will be back.

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Excellent customer service and selection of pastries.

If you are from Wisconsin or famailr with Kringle at all then you know O&H. I stumbled on the O&H by chance leaving the Blue Bear after breakfast! I was so impressed by the service inside the store at O&H... Lots of samples, great layout with a cafe and tons of pastry options. If you haven't had a a Kringle... You need to, and better yet bring one to the office like I did!

I have heard wonderful things about Kringles, and heard that the best place to try one was at O&H. I was also told that raspberry is the way to go. I bought one, $9, no tax, and went to wolf it down. The first bite made my mouth grimace because of the level of sweetness. I then looked at the ingredients. Second ingredient: Cane Granulated Sugar. Further down we see natural flavor as part of the Butter Margarine, Powdered Sugar, Brown Sugar, Margarine which again contains natural flavor, Fondant (sugar, corn syrup), Sugared Egg Yolks, Natural Flavoring, Molasses, Corn Starch, Guar Gum, Gellan Gum, Sodium Benzoate. These are the ingredients that made me cringe, maybe that's why it's a kringle. Then I look at the nutritional information. One server, one 12th of the circle, so basically a few bites, contains 20g of sugar. That's 5 teaspoons! But who's going to eat just a tiny bit of it? By comparison, a serving size of Oreos is 2 cookies, and has 13g of sugar. I have a feeling that if half the sugar was used, the cringle would taste much better. For those that have never had a kringle, here's how you can make an approximation at home. Take a croissant. Fill it with jam of choice, several tablespoons of the jam, and add some fondant icing on top.

Excellent local bakery, my only complaint is that the online ordering is significantly more expensive than going to the store and purchasing yourself.

Of course OH rates highly. They are a class act. However, I would love to see them sell kringles by the half so you can have one half that one person likes and 1/2 that the other likes. They could be handled by the counter staff like they handle making customer choices of doughnuts and sweet rolls. I avoid purchasing Kringle many times because I have to buy what the majority like and I never get to enjoy the flavors I'd like to try. I think they'd sell more Kringle and make many people happy with this idea. I've floated the concept and people get really excited when I bring it up. Just sayin', OH...

Mmmm... Kringle! This bakery has all the great baked goods that you might want from a bakery in Wisconsin... but the Kringle is the highlight. As are the great souvenirs you can purchase here -- this is where I bought some items as gifts for my family for when I returned from my trip to Wisconsin, and clearly Kringle is the best kind of Danish that you can get, really. I loved the art on the cakes on display here and the Kringle carrying bags looked great too! I like all the Scandinavian wares on sale in addition to the food. In any case, I was impressed on my visit here and would surely choose to visit here again for treats/souvenirs etc.

Delicious Kringles ( along with many other sweets) and excellent customer service always! We make the trip from southwest burbs of IL several times a year to indulge.

Ordered several of the kringles and they are great. But the reason for the two stars is due to their customer service. They seem to be somewhat callous and lack of any sense of care or understanding.

Not a lot to say, but I got a donut stick, a breakfast sandwich, a cinnamon scone and a pecan sticky bun there. The sandwich took a bit to make, and needed some salt and onions on it, but otherwise it was really good. The pastries are... UNREAL GOOD. Each dough had a distinct flavor. That cinnamon scone had to be the best thing ever. SOOO good and crunchy. The pecan sticky bun was thin, but the dough was so soft and melted in your mouth. I regret not getting a month's supply to bring home with me. SOOO GOOOOOOODDD!

Fantastic family owned and local bakery. Famous for their Kringle but would highly recommend their "Angel Cookies". Powdered sugar dipped shortbread cookies with the perf ER amount of sweet with just a pinch of salt. Sooooo good!

My wife and I ordered 3 Chocolate Pringle's as holiday gifts. Unfortunately, when they arrived, they were not sealed fully. We contacted the company and were told that new products would be sent and we would even receive a refund. No products came and I called again. The customer rep told me she would pass this on to a supervisor and we would hear back. Again, there was no response forthcoming. I tried one more call, was on hold for close to an hour and finally hung up. I followed up recently with an email to customer service and guess what! I still have not received the courtesy of a response. I would never buy from this company again.

Excellent danish!!! You will NEVER be disappointed with the quality of their baked goods!!!

I have preferred and shipped kringles from here for decades. In the area, so stopped by. Clean and the people are so nice that work there. Free samples (today they have the red white and blue Kringle). OH is to kringles as Krispy Kreme is to donuts.

The best of everything, kringle and breads and donuts. Good sandwiches and coffee. Been going hear for 50 years. The best clerks and great parking

Just left there. As I was waiting for a sandwhich to made, I made an offhand (yet friendly) comment about there being no samples on the platter. The older woman in the bakery (by herself) actually said.." Is that ALL you came in for?" WOW. I'll have you know I'm a very good customer, but that ends today. This location has gone into the toilet since Becky (who is wonderful) moved to the other location. I have also been at the Durand Avenue location when teenagers in the bakery were talking smack about the customers. This was several months ago. The quality workers are no longer there, and what is left, isn't pretty.

Dear Danish Kringle: why did you have to come into my life?? I am so in love with you! You came delivered several miles away but you were as fresh as if you came out of the oven. There is no other pastry near me that compares to you. I am hooked and consumed nearly the entire 1.5 lbs of deliciousness. Of course I had to give a mere slice to the angel who delivered you to me but next time I shall not share!!

Whenever I fly back, I always get a Pecan Kringle! My favorite one. I've had the cupcakes when I was a kid, j need to expand and try more of the selection.

Donuts? Yes please! Always a crowd pleaser at work. Kringle are yummy and so many flavors to choose from. Great for any occasion and time of the day.

Kringle Kringle Kringle! I always stock up on this Racine delicacy, and bring it back to Chicago to share with friends and family. My favorite is the pecan, but I also enjoy the raspberry. For friends and family who live on the other side of the country, I opt to send the two-pack of Kringle (pecan and raspberry) for holidays and birthdays. I have never met anyone who did not enjoy the greatness that is Kringle. My only complaint is that the doughnuts in the bakery do not seem to be sufficiently stocked on weekend mornings. I typically come in right around the time of opening, or shortly thereafter. Usually, I am left waiting for the type of doughnut I want, or told that I won't be able to get it. For example, I was in on a Saturday morning not long ago, and the bakery did not have any sprinkle doughnuts (neither chocolate nor vanilla sprinkled). It was about 30 minutes after opening, so there is no way they would have sold out that quickly. As good as the doughnuts are, I have had to stick with Kringle because this has occurred quite a few times already. Overall, Racine is very lucky to have O&H. This is a well-known bakery with multiple locations throughout Racine.
