At the core of our success are the Olesen family values: hard work, integrity, and a commitment to quality. Each generation has embraced these principles, ensuring our bakery stays connected to its heritage while gracefully evolving.
Peter Olesen’s Journey to Leadership
Peter Olesen’s new role as President marks an exciting chapter for O&H Danish Bakery. As the fourth generation of his family in the business, his journey has been filled with learning, dedication, and respect for their legacy. Immersed in the bakery since childhood, Peter learned the ins and outs of the business from his grandfather and father. His experience as Vice President has equipped him with the skills necessary to lead us into a bright future. Peter is committed to upholding the high standards and traditional methods that define O&H Danish Bakery while also bringing a fresh outlook, eager to innovate and expand our offerings while honoring our Danish roots.
The Future of O&H Danish Bakery

As we look forward to a bright future, we’re thrilled to share our Cherry Almond Macaron Kringle—a delightful treat that captures the spirit of the 2020s. Over the past few years, we’ve been on quite a flavor journey, and when you chat with Peter and Alyson, the 4th generation of our family, their favorite flavors often begin with a special Macaron cookie topping. This crunchy French cookie shell adds a lovely touch to our tender, buttery Kringle, and it’s a little secret among true Kringle lovers.
We layer our traditional Danish almond paste with our homemade Door County Cherry filling, creating a delightful blend where the tart Montmorency cherries harmonize beautifully with the sweet almond. It’s a cozy little indulgence that you won’t want to miss—trust us, skipping this treat might just lead to some serious FOMO. Join us in savoring the simple pleasures and creating memories together with every bite.
