About

Fischer & Wieser is a family-owned specialty food company proudly rooted in Fredericksburg, at the heart of the Texas Hill Country. What began as a humble roadside fruit stand has grown into a globally recognized brand guided by faith, family spirit, and a passion for culinary creativity. With a mission of Creating Flavorful Experiences That Make People Happy, the company is committed to crafting premium foods that bring people together.

Founding Story

In 1969, educator and entrepreneur Mark Wieser began selling homemade jams and jellies at a roadside fruit stand called Das Peach Haus, using peaches from his family orchard. In 1979, high school student Case D. Fischer joined the team, later becoming Wieser's business partner in 1986 while attending Texas A&M University. Their partnership transformed the business, leading to the creation of The Original Roasted Raspberry Chipotle Sauce®, which won a NASFT Outstanding New Bestseller in 1997 and put the company on the national stage.

Mark Wieser

Founder & Chairman of the Board

see bio

Mark Wieser is a native of Fredericksburg, Texas, and the founder behind Fischer & Wieser (formerly Das Peach Haus®). In 1969, he launched Das Peach Haus as a humble roadside fruit stand, selling peaches grown on his parents’ orchard.

Mark’s connection to the land runs deep: his father planted the family orchard in 1928, and his mother crafted the preserves that would become the brand’s foundational product.

In 1986, Mark formalized his partnership with Case D. Fischer to found Fischer & Wieser Specialty Foods, growing the business from a stand into an internationally distributed line of more than 150 handcrafted specialty foods.

A graduate of Texas A&M University, Mark has also served as a beloved teacher, historian, and former Judge of Gillespie County. Today, he devotes his time to writing, painting, and tending the farm—the pursuits he cherishes most. He continues to lead the organization as Chairman of the Board.

Under his guidance, Fischer & Wieser has evolved into a culinary destination at the F&W Farmstead in Fredericksburg, where guests can engage with cooking classes, sip Dietz Distillery cocktails, taste F&W products, book on-site lodging, and experience the company’s Texas Hill Country heritage firsthand.

Case D. Fischer, co-founder and CEO of Fischer & Wieser Specialty Foods, was inducted into the Specialty Food Association Hall of Fame in 2025, honoring his more than four decades of leadership in the industry.

Case’s journey on the farmstead began in 1979 in the orchards of Fredericksburg, Texas, working alongside mentor Mark Wieser at Das Peach Haus. That early experience inspired the launch of Fischer & Wieser, which grew from a local farm stand into an internationally recognized brand. Under Case’s leadership, the company pioneered innovations like The Original Roasted Raspberry Chipotle Sauce® and expanded into retail, foodservice, private label, and co-packing—all while remaining rooted in artisanal quality.

A proud family business, Fischer & Wieser now includes the next generation of Fischers in leadership roles. Case is also known for mentoring up-and-coming food entrepreneurs and serving on multiple Specialty Food Association committees and its board of directors.

In his hometown of Fredericksburg, Case has served as Chairman of the Admiral Nimitz Foundation and President of both the Chamber of Commerce and Shopkeepers Guild. He continues to champion innovation, community, and excellence in food.

Fodor's Travel - Feb 11, 2026 The 10 Best Small Towns in America for Food Lovers "With its 19th-century German roots, you can guess what kind of cuisine evolved in Fredericksburg, in the heart of Texas Hill Country. Yes, classic German dishes remain a strong historical backbone in this Old-World-infused town, but a new generation of chefs is broadening the palette—layering global techniques and flavors onto familiar forms while embracing the surrounding bounty of farms, ranches, and vineyards. As a result, Hill Country’s menus often feature modern interpretations. Otto’s German Bistro leads the way with its refined take on German classics—duck schnitzel over käesespäetzle, crispy sauerkraut balls with housemade sausage, or Malaysian-curry-infused bratwurst—while Hill Country-style kitchens such as Vaudeville’s underground bistro and Hill & Vine increasingly fold local produce—blackberries, peaches, lavender—into everything from Tex-Mex to wine-country cuisine. For a deeper connection to local ingredients, Fischer & Wieser Farmstead offers jams, sauces, and hands-on cooking classes shaped by the surrounding ag landscape."
Food & Wine - Feb 09, 2026 This Texas City Is Emerging as the Next Great US Wine Getaway "Dietz Distillery represents a similar evolution. Founded by Dietz Jr. Fischer of the Fischer & Wieser family, the distillery draws on skills he picked up in Austria, where he learned to make fruit-based eau-de-vie, then brought that knowledge home to his family’s peach orchard — turning the famous Fredericksburg fruit into small-batch, farm-fresh spirits."
Doug Bardwell - Jan 30, 2026 VALENTINE’S DAY GIFT GUIDE 2026 – Unique ideas for your sweetie "Fischer & Wieser Farmstead is featured as a Valentine’s Day gift idea in the guide. The blog highlights their specialty food products, especially their selection of jams, preserves, fudge, and chocolates. The author mentions personally enjoying these products and notes that the company offers online recipes to try with their items. Some featured flavors include Hot Peach & Honey Sauce and Peach and Bacon Jam, which are suggested as delicious and unique gift options for Valentine’s Day."
Joy Filled Eats - Jan 26, 2026 Valentine’s Day Gifts "Strawberry Rhubarb Preserves – Fischer & Wieser This timeless preserve blends sweet strawberries with tart rhubarb for a vibrant flavor that’s both nostalgic and refreshingly bold. Ripe strawberries and tangy rhubarb come together in a smooth, fruit-packed preserve that’s handcrafted one jar at a time in the Texas Hill Country. I love it spread on multi-grain toast."
Sacramento Bee - Dec 02, 2025 Deep in the heart of Texas is wine country and more "Das Peach Haus is a rustic farmhouse overlooking a serene pond and surrounded by a grove of pine trees that suits the casual vibe of the Texas Hill Country. However, the modest structure belies the eclectic nature of the business it houses, Fischer & Wieser Specialty Foods, Inc., a Hill Country staple since 1928. Yes, there is a peach orchard, the fruits of which you can taste in their award-winning jams and jellies, but also light bites and bakery items, cooking classes and wine tastings, dinner under the pines and on occasion, live music. Their most recent addition is the Dietz Distillery, from which comes their Five Judges Gin, a London-style gin whose Lone Star spin honors the quintet of judges who have called the property home over the past century."
