What is a chimney cake?
A chimney cake is a traditional Hungarian pastry called Kürtőskalács, made by wrapping hand-rolled dough around a cylindrical dowel and baking it until the outside caramelizes to golden perfection while the inside stays soft and layered. Budapest Bakeshop makes them fresh daily in small batches using authentic Hungarian techniques refined over 300 years.
What is a savoury chimney sandwich?

The Savoury Chimney Sandwich is Budapest Bakeshop's signature invention and the world's first. It takes the same hand-rolled, freshly baked chimney cake dough and fills it with bold savoury ingredients like Hungarian sausage and aged cheddar. Warm, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and completely unlike anything else in North America.

What flavours does Budapest Bakeshop have?

Budapest Bakeshop offers both sweet and savoury chimney cakes. Permanent sweet staples include Cinnamon Sugar and Nutella Walnut. On the savoury side, the Classic Aged Cheddar Chimney Sandwich is always available. Seasonal specials rotate regularly so there is always something new to try.

Are Budapest Bakeshop chimney cakes made fresh daily?
Yes. Every chimney cake is hand-rolled and baked fresh in small batches throughout the day, every single day. Nothing is frozen or reheated. What you order was made today, and it holds up beautifully whether you eat it warm in-store or take it with you.
Does Budapest Bakeshop sell out?
Yes, and regularly. Because everything is made fresh in small batches, popular items do sell out, especially from May through September. Calling ahead or ordering online is strongly recommended during busy periods.

Who founded Budapest Bakeshop?

Budapest Bakeshop was founded by Todd and Anett Kane in 2019. Anett grew up in Hungary where chimney cakes were part of everyday life at holiday markets and celebrations. After moving to North America, she and Todd built Budapest Bakeshop to bring authentic Hungarian chimney cakes to North American communities, with Anett developing all recipes entirely from scratch. The first location opened in 2020 in Niagara on the Lake, Ontario.

Is Budapest Bakeshop a franchise?

Yes. Budapest Bakeshop is now franchising across the United States, Canada, and select international markets. It is a founder-led brand built on authentic recipes, proprietary systems, and a commitment to quality over rapid expansion.
