Purim is around the corner.
And in Greater Washington, that means one thing — the trays come out.
The golden ones. The perfectly folded ones. The ones that disappear before you even finish setting the table.
For over three decades, The Kosher Pastry Oven in Silver Spring has been baking the hamantaschen that quietly define Purim for families across Montgomery County and the D.C. area.
Not trendy. Not flashy.
Just baked right.
The Hamantaschen Everyone Waits For
Walk into The Kosher Pastry Oven on Lamberton Drive this time of year and you’ll see it immediately — trays lined with warm, fresh, triangular perfection.
The dough is tender but structured. The folds are clean. The filling is generous without overpowering.
And the flavors?
• Chocolate
• Raspberry
• Prune
• Apricot
• Poppy
The classics. The ones that actually belong on a Purim table.
Whether you’re assembling mishloach manot, preparing for the seudah, or just stocking the kitchen for the week, these hamantaschen have become a Silver Spring ritual.
Every year, same question:
“Did you pick them up yet?”
Baked Right Here in Silver Spring
In a time when so much is shipped, frozen, or mass-produced, there’s something grounding about knowing your Purim pastries are baked locally.
The Kosher Pastry Oven has been serving the Greater Washington Jewish community since 1995 — and that consistency shows. These aren’t factory cookies.
They’re handcrafted.
They’re community-made.
They’re the kind that show up at shul kiddush tables, school celebrations, and family dining rooms year after year.
When people search for “best kosher hamantaschen near me” in Montgomery County, they’re often looking for this exact place — even if they don’t realize it yet.
A Tradition That Tastes Like Home
Purim is loud. Joyful. A little chaotic.
But the food? That’s memory.
It’s the taste you grew up with. The one your kids now expect. The one that quietly tells you the chag has arrived.
And in Silver Spring, that taste has a name:
The Kosher Pastry Oven.
No gimmicks.
No overcomplication.
Just fresh, golden hamantaschen baked the way they’re supposed to be.
