Roland’s Swiss Pastry & Bakery creates breakfast pastries, specialty
desserts, handmade bite-sized delicacies, European-style cakes, and

someone with a sweet-tooth. What once started out as a small retail
location, quickly turned into the most trusted source for Hotels,
Conventions, Restaurants, Coffee Shops, and more.
ROLAND’S HERITAGE
Roland’s Swiss Pastry & Bakery originated as a small pizza bakery in early 1962 by Roland Lanz. Due to increasing public demand Roland’s business continued growing, and in early 1967, Roland moved the popular pizza bakery to a location on Del Monte Drive. He also converted his Pizza Bakery into a full service retail bakery and restaurant, specializing in the European foods from his homeland in Switzerland. Throughout that time Roland remained the sole owner of the bakery until his retirement in 1992, when Gerhard Schaefer and his wife Elvira purchased the bakery.
ROLAND’S TODAY
Dane is a passionate Houstonian who believes legacy and true
craftsmanship should be a priority for his city. When the opportunity arose
to completely take over a long-lasting Houston establishment, there was
no doubt in his mind that he was being called to continue serving the
Houston and Greater Houston community with a product he believed
couldn’t be found anywhere else. With a knack for operational
improvements and the willingness to go to extreme ends for any customer,
small or large, Roland’s is poised to continue being a staple in Houston.
