A Treat to Share - Betty was a delightful instructor, showing us all the details for making a successful chimney cake. We each made 3 and when Betty gave us the cakes she had made, we had enough to share with our tour group of 24 that evening, a bonus!

10/10 Recommend!! - My friend and I took a trip to Budapest and wanted to do an activity that wasn't another tour. This was such a fun experience and the cakes turned out sooo yummy! We got so many chimney cakes to take home too (3 each). It was just us two but it would be fun with a group of people as well!

Beautifull - this place was so beautiful! The green trees of the park, flowers, peace, and its still in the middle of the city. Also the dining bubble was opened so we made chimney cakes basically in the open air. Fantastic!

Fantastic Experience Chimney Cake school at a Superb Location! - My experience at the Cimney Cake School was absolutely delightful! From start to finish, it was a fantastic journey filled with fun and learning. The location nestled within a beautiful park added an extra charm to the whole experience. Our instructor was simply amazing, guiding us with expertise and enthusiasm throughout the class. And oh, the final product - the Chimney Cake we made was hands down the best in Budapest! The combination of crispy dough and delicious toppings left us craving for more. I highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Budapest. It's a must-do activity that guarantees joy, learning, and of course, mouthwatering treats!

Nice experience - We were so happy to find this workshop still available! Their chimney cake workshop downtown was fully booked for the day we could go, and then we found this one in the park, and realized it’s the same company, so we booked, attended, and loved every second of it. Especially that we learned why exactly the chimney cake is called chimney cake . You’ll see when you make your first one!

awesome! - Great workshop, and we loved that it's in the middle of the park, with transparent walls, so it's basically like you're baking outside. The bubble can become hot from the oven, but we kept the door open, and the ventilator going. It was a lovely experience with the family!
