    I lived outside Houston for 4 years. I missed my 24 hour donuts. And now I've gained weight since being home. D'oh.

    Twice the size, and the Earl Campbell sausage has just the right kick to it. Spicy but not hot.

    they look the same. i hate how they don't sell kolaches after 11am. But they sell donuts all day... that doesn't make sense.

    The kolaches were the only thing at Shipley's that I felt was a little weak. I'll have to give the new kolaches a try this weekend...

    I prefer Shipley's sausage/cheese kolaches

    Kolache factory has good ones as well, though they have too much bread on them for my taste. They are good, though...I just ate them too much a long time ago

    Nothing beats a warm fresh out of the oven Shipley's glazed donut with a glass of milk. Their kolaches are pretty top-notch as well.

    I think they're actually glazed with crack.
