U. NAZARETH TWP., Pa. \u2013 A much-loved business offering authentic Hungarian specialties is making moves in Northampton County.<\/p>\n
Mattie\u2019s Strudel Haus, offering a wide variety of authentic Hungarian stretched strudels, is planning to reopen on Wednesday, April 1, at its new homebase at 299 Industrial Drive in Upper Nazareth Township, owner Kelly Vlasics announced in a video posted to the business’ Facebook page.<\/p>\n
The Upper Nazareth spot is where Vlasics began conducting Mattie\u2019s operations nine years ago before increasing demand led her to relocate the business in 2020 to 126 W. Main St. in Bath.<\/p>\n

Mattie’s Strudel Haus<\/p>\n
Last year, Vlasics announced that she was closing the Bath location<\/a> in order to have a better work-life balance, with plans to continue offering the handmade strudels at local events and farmers markets.<\/p>\n Now, seven months after the Bath location of Mattie\u2019s closed in August, Vlasics is transitioning the business\u2019 brick-and-mortar operations back to 299 Industrial Drive in Upper Nazareth.<\/p>\n \u201cMattie\u2019s Strudel Haus lives on,\u201d Vlasics said in her most recent video announcement.<\/p>\n \u201c\u2026 I\u2019m not going to get all emotional here, but it is emotional. Entrepreneurs have a heart in their business. They have a passion in their business. And while we may fail, and we might get back up many times, the whole point is to get up and do your best and to come back to your business and do it better every day.\u201d<\/p>\n In the recent video announcement, Vlasics noted that that \u201cthe grass isn\u2019t always greener on the other side\u201d and \u201csometimes bigger isn\u2019t better.\u201d<\/p>\n She looks forward to continuing Mattie\u2019s operations on a smaller scale, making small batches of strudels where customers can secure their orders by calling 215-301-1881.<\/p>\n Strudel varieties for each upcoming month will be shared a month in advance via the business\u2019 social media<\/a>, website<\/a> and e-mail blasts. For example, May\u2019s strudel selections will be shared in April.<\/p>\n Mattie’s Strudel Haus<\/p>\n Customers will have options regarding how they\u2019d like to receive their strudel orders.<\/p>\n They could pick up the strudels at the Upper Nazareth retail location or one of the monthly farmers markets that Mattie\u2019s is attending this season (Easton, Saucon Valley and Northampton), or they could have their strudels delivered to their home.<\/p>\n Extras of various strudel varieties will be available at the farmers markets, but individuals should place orders in advance to guarantee they get their desired strudels.<\/p>\n Starting April 1, the Upper Nazareth location\u2019s retail hours will be 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Mondays and Tuesdays, 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturdays and 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sundays.<\/p>\n \u201cOf course, if you need to talk to me, just call me,\u201d Vlasics said. \u201cI answer the phone. My husband answers the phone, and we\u2019ll get this all squared away.\u201d<\/p>\n In Upper Nazareth, Mattie\u2019s will operate alongside another local business, Stehly\u2019s Bakery & Eatery<\/a>, selling homemade, gluten-free baked goods like kiffles, nut tossies, pies, pasties, banana roll and pumpkin poll, along with other hand-crafted creations like artisan breakfast sandwiches and peanut butter.<\/p>\n Mattie’s Strudel Haus<\/p>\n Both businesses are offering Easter specials, with Mattie\u2019s featuring 8- and 16-inch strudels of \u201cEverything But the Kitchen Sink\u201d (eggs, sausage, bacon, pork roll, hash browns and Cooper cheese), lemon meringue strudel bites, blueberry lemon cheesecake bites and apple bites; and Stehly\u2019s featuring kiffle flavors of chocolate raspberry, chocolate peanut butter, hazelnut and chocolate ganache.<\/p>\n Additionally, Mattie\u2019s is continuing to make its cabbage and apple strudels that can be purchased at Dunderbak\u2019s at the Lehigh Valley Mall in Whitehall Township, and it\u2019s also continuing to host Sip & Stretch classes, where participants receive two dough balls to stretch, fill and roll while enjoying a complimentary glass of wine, appetizers, coupon and loyalty card and certificate of completion, at Soaked Winery in Lehigh Township.<\/p>\n Upcoming Sip & Stretch classes, where participants take home two 16-inch strudels that they make, will be held April 20 (full), May 18, June 15, July 20, Aug. 17 and Sept. 21.<\/p>\n \u201cThat class has been so inspiring,\u201d Vlasics said in the video announcement. \u201cI think that\u2019s where I\u2019ll find my new stretcher.\u201d<\/p>\n Vlasics has been making the Hungarian specialties since childhood, when she learned the culinary skills from her mother, Bonnie Vlasics, and late Hungarian grandmother and the business\u2019 namesake, Matilda \u201cMattie\u201d Vlasics.<\/p>\n When preparing the strudels, Kelly and her team stretch the dough extremely thin by hand before filling it with homemade mixtures and fresh ingredients – including fruits and vegetables from local farms and orchards such as Bechdolt’s Orchards in Lower Saucon Township and Twin Maple Farms in East Allen Township – and then rolling it by hand.<\/p>\n Mattie’s Strudel Haus<\/p>\n Customers can choose from a wide array of strudel varieties, including breakfast delights, savory meals and sweet treats.<\/p>\n Dozens of rotating selections include savory options such as cheesesteak, cabbage kielbasa, pastie, taco, Mediterranean and chicken bacon ranch; sweet selections such as apple crisp, blueberry crumb, cherry cheesecake and apple caramel toffee; and seasonal creations such as pork and sauerkraut with mashed potatoes, reuben, peach cobbler, strawberry rhubarb, pumpkin cheesecake and “Gobble” (turkey, mashed potatoes and more).<\/p>\n The strudels are sold frozen, allowing individuals to bake them fresh for any event.<\/p>\n Other Mattie’s offerings include homemade halupki and Hungarian rolls (kolachi) such as lekvar and raspberry.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are blessed and grateful for you!\u201d reads a recent announcement on the business\u2019 Facebook page.<\/p>\n \u201cWe look forward to seeing you again at 299 Industrial Drive, Nazareth Pa.
