Newest conquest of the Hungarian chimney cake: Malaysia!
Change language:
Hungarian gastronomy is full of delicious meals. Everybody knows and loves a hot bowl of goulash, and lángos is also getting more and more popular all over the world. The best thing is that now, it is not only Hungarian expats who sell traditional Hungarian foods in different parts of the world, but foreigners themselves have also acquired a taste for Hungarian cuisine and started businesses focusing on traditional Hungarian dishes.
Daily News Hungary reported earlier about all the places in the world where you can get a taste of this Hungarian delicacy. According to checkout.blog.hu, you can even get them at the Bangkok night market.
In Taiwan, you can try warm, meat-filled chimney cakes, but the real winner is the chimney cake filled with ice cream. Although people in Hungary are happy with just the delicious dough of chimney cakes that is soft on the inside and crispy on the outside, foreigners prefer to add various fillings.
In Penang, Malaysia, for example, Rollney, a company selling chimney cakes, has opened up their second shop. They offer all sorts of fillings and toppings, from Nutella to Oreos and Kit Kats. A fascinating tidbit is that to stop the filling from spilling out at the bottom, they put Cornflakes there to soak up the delicious inside.
We have a chimney cake franchise here in UK also and the owners are remarkable people who put so much energy and passion towards their business. I had the chance to collaborate with them and I wrote an article on my blog about their delicious chimney cake business. Is truly inspiring to see that this Hungarian cake become a very trendy dessert in UK.
