Hi Prochiz Lovers, when Prochiz chef came up with this recipe, Prochiz thought about its interesting name and how zen it will taste like because it originated from Budapest. As it turns out, even with the name Budapest Cake, this food is originated in Sweden. Ingvar Strid was a pastry chef from Sweden created this pastry. Then why was it named the Budapest Cake? They say it is because of his love of travelling and how much he admired Budapest so he decided to name his creation after his favorite city.

The trademark of Budapest Cake is the batter, topping and filling. Using an egg white-based meringue batter, topped with hazelnuts and mandarin marmalade filling. Prochiz really wanted to travel to Budapest because this city seemed to provide a sweet, fresh and soft experience. Wow, it seems to be one of the must-see cities, Prochiz Lovers!

There are 2 types of Budapest Cake: one batter creates crunchy cake and the other one is soft in the form of a cake roll. This time Prochiz will share the crispy version. The only difference is the time it takes to bake. The longer it is baked, the crunchier it will become. So Prochiz Lovers can choose according to your liking, whether they are crunchy or soft.

May 1 st was made to be Budapest Cake day in Sweden because of the love for the pastry. And over time, there are more variations of Budapest Cake, ranging in toppings and fillings, adding real fresh fruit pieces to add freshness to the taste of this dessert.

This recipe uses Prochiz Lovers’ favorite multipurpose cheese spread, Prochiz Spready. This cheese has a texture like cheese spread, very soft, with a savory taste and easy to use for all kinds of foods. Cooking becomes more simple, practical and the results are more special. Good luck, Prochiz Lovers! Also share your #Bikinyangsimpeljadispesial and #ProchizMakinPraktis moments on social media by tagging the @keju_Prochiz account.
