Baking Process Of Kurtoskalacs Stock Photography

Kurtoskalacs is a popular pastry specific to Hungarian-speaking regions, more predominantly, the Szekely land. Made from sweet, yeast dough of which a strip is spun and then wrapped around a truncated cone–shaped baking spit, and rolled in granulated sugar. It is baked above charcoal cinders while lubricated with melted butter, until its surface gets a golden-brown color. During the baking process the sugar stuck on kürtőskalács becomes caramel and forms shiny, crispy crust on the cake.
