Chimney Cake
Chimney Cake is a Hungarian pastry also known as stove cake or Hungarian wedding cake. It is baked on a tapered cylindrical spit over an open fire. It is famous as Hungary's oldest pastry. It is sold in bakeries, pastry shops and even street vendors are selling them on street corners, carnivals and fairs.
It consists of a thin yeast pastry ribbon wound around a wooden cylinder, sprinkled with sugar that caramelizes during the baking process. The dough is yeast-raised, flavored with sweet spices, the most common being cinnamon, walnuts, almonds and cheese.
It is hollow and can be filled with ice-cream, Nutella, pudding or any other favorite filling that comes to your mind.
