What To Expect

This is a real hands-on workshop, not a quick demo. Learn how to make traditional Hungarian chimney cake (kürtőskalács) from scratch in a beautiful, professional cooking studio in central Budapest.

• Learn the traditional dough-making process from scratch
• Shape, roll and bake real, full-size chimney cakes
• Choose from classic Hungarian flavors such as cinnamon, walnut, cocoa or vanilla
