"Perhaps not exactly a donut in the typical sense of the word, we’re adding this one to the list for your own benefit. A traditional Hungarian pastry – sometimes referred to as chimney cake – kürtösh is a cylindrical donut baked until it reaches a golden, crispy state before it is topped with chocolate, nuts, spices or sugar for an incredibly indulgent take on the donut. Add some chocolate brandy balls and biscotti and you have the perfect recipe for your next day-date."

"Kurtosh is widely known for their Hungarian Chimney Cake – a pastry that is soft and fluffy on the inside and flaky on the out, with a handful of topping options to choose from including hazelnut, almond, chocolate, pistachio and more. Though that’s not all. Don’t look past their cake slabs, which can range from $4 per 100 grams."
