Naegelin’s in American Profile




Texas' Oldest Bakery featured in American Profile


Krause’s grandparents and great-grandparents also savored pastries and breads from Naegelin’s—Texas’ oldest bakery—which has a history as rich and deep as the chunky apple filling in its famous 2-foot-long strudels.
