Strudel, a customary dessert from the Habsburg Empire, is thought to have originated from Turkish influences in Hungary. It is a fundamental component of rural wedding feasts. I utilize my mother’s procedure for the hand-stretched version. The Strudel dough is supple, extremely thin and hand-stretched. We create both sweet and savory Strudels. In my hometown, typical fillings included poppy-seed with pumpkin, sweet or savory cabbage, and sweet cottage cheese cream. You now have the opportunity to craft these Strudels at my exclusive baking class. I invite you to become a part of my gastronomic journey, discover my familial secrets, and savor the fruits of your labor at the conclusion of the course.

The communication from start to finish was great, we were given a few different options and ask what our preferences were, then received very detailed directions that made walked to the studio very easy. When we arrived and began to cook it was very personable and hands on! We look forward to trying the recipes at home.

Wonderful culinary experience - The perfect way to learn how to make strudel from scratch. Marti was very informative and shared many stories about traditional Hungarian cooking, ingredients and customs. It was a wonderful experience with hand-stretched strudels, tasty snacks and wine. I would highly recommend this cooking class when you visit Budapest. Thank you, Marti!

Incredible - The experience was unique and original. The strudels tasted incredibly good and especially better because you made them yourself. The baking course is only recommended.

Bucket List Class for Me! - The one thing I wanted to do on my first visit to Budapest was to learn how to make strudel for my 91 year old Hungarian Dad. I was so happy to find Marti's class. And I was not disappointed!
Marti is kind and patient in her teaching. Her hands on approach allows everyone to touch the ingredients as well as participate in the preparation. Learning the family history of strudel making helps bring it even more alive! It reminded me of the stories Dad told us of his mom while growing up.
The instructions were easy to follow, the ingredients basic to find, and Marti's guidance made it easy to do.
The strudel was amazing - both the aroma while baking and the taste when done. And by the time I got back to my apartment I had received an email with an assortment of recipes for different strudels to make at home.
From start to finish the experience was wonderful! Marti is a beautiful host! From homemade soft drinks, an experienced and informative hands on tutorial, Hungarian wine and snacks, to enjoying the finished product, every moment is delicious and fun!
I would highly recommend this experience to anyone wanting to learn more about the Hungarian culture and it's foods!
Definitely a bucket list moment in my life! Thank you Marti!

A Must-Do in Budapest - One of the most enjoyable things we've ever done in Budapest. We go to Budapest at least twice a year and always look for new things to do. We attended the strudel making class. Marti shared with us her grandmother's recipe and old-world style of making traditional strudel, along with interesting anecdotal stories of Hungarian family life past and present. It was a fabulous evening! Highly recommended.

Highlight of the trip - This was so fun, interesting and yummy!! The wine and appetizers were delicious, learned about the different Paprikas. Then got to learn about the background of strudel and all the different fillings you can use, not just the ones we made. The best part was just talking with our hostess/teacher. She is lovely, informative and so welcoming. And BTW - the strudel came out GREAT. Just don't do it the last night of your trip so you can have leftovers!! Thoroughly enjoyed.

Must do Experience with Marti! - This was the best experience of our trip! WE LOVE IT. Marti welcomed us into her kitchen as if we were entering her home as her own family! She was a wealth of information about the area, her culture and of course cooking! She was so accomodating, warm and personable! I just can't recommend this experience enough! If you are in Budapest this is a must do!
