The menu of each chimney cake dessert comes with a gift of raspberry lemonade. On the occasion of Valentine’s Day, we can request our Kürtős Krémes in Valentine’s Day design, our Kürtős filled with strawberry cream and coated with caramel chocolate. Also this month, the Kürtős Love Box will take care of the mood.
