Description

Discover how to prepare Kürtőskalács, a traditional Hungarian chimney cake, in an interactive workshop held in Budapest’s city center. This popular treat is made from sweet dough, formed into strips, wrapped around a cone, and rolled in sugar.

After a brief introduction, your expert chef instructor will guide you through each step of making authentic chimney cakes. You will learn essential tips, key techniques, and the ingredients needed for perfect results.

Watch as the sugar caramelizes on the baking cake, forming a shiny, crispy golden crust. Once baked, you will flavor your cake with options such as sugar, coconut, or cinnamon.

At the workshop’s end, enjoy your creation at the café or take it home in provided bags. You will also receive a certificate of completion and a secret recipe to recreate the cakes in your own kitchen.
