The Hungarian Confectioners’ Association has published the list of confectioneries across the country that will be selling the winning cakes from the “Hungary’s Cake” and “Hungary’s Sugar-Free Cake” competitions.

From 19 August 2024, visitors will be able to purchase these cakes at the Magyar Ízek Utcája (Street of Hungarian Flavours) event at the Várkert Bazaar in Budapest (1013 Budapest, 2-6 Ybl Miklós Square). Additionally, over 500 confectioneries nationwide, listed by the association, will be serving these special cakes, Lelépő writes.
The association noted that the list of participating locations may expand until 18 August. They advised that the cakes are guaranteed to be available on 19 and 20 August, but after these dates, customers should check directly with the confectioneries to confirm availability.

The title of Hungary’s Cake for 2024 goes to Mákvirág, created by confectioner Alfréd Kovács from Vác. Meanwhile, the sugar-free category was won by Zöld málna (Green Raspberry), a creation by Szeged-based confectioners Ádám Novák and László Csonka.
This year marks the 18th time the Hungarian Confectioners’ Association has organised the Hungary’s Cake competition, in honour of Hungary’s national holiday on 20 August, celebrating Saint Stephen, the founder of the state, and Hungary’s symbolic birthday.
