Schnecken

Our authentic schnecken—German for "snails"—are the delightful ancestors of American sticky buns that have been on our bakery menu since day 1. These irresistible sweet rolls feature our signature sour cream dough swirled with aromatic cinnamon, then crowned with a deliciously sticky topping of rich maple syrup, premium chopped pecans, and plump raisins.

Each bite delivers the perfect balance of soft, pillowy dough and crunchy, caramelized topping. Schnecken have earned their place as cornerstone holiday treats—particularly popular during Thanksgiving and Christmas when families unwind these spiral delights while unwrapping presents or preparing for festive cooking.

Lovingly handcrafted using our original recipe and the finest ingredients, our schnecken embody the old-world craftsmanship that has made William Greenberg Desserts a New York institution for over seven decades.

Each order of Schnecken contains 12 pastries.
