Hungarian Strudel Making Class: Stretch & Fill Two Ways

Overview

2 hours 30 minutes

Mobile ticket

The Strudel is a typical Habsburg-Empire dessert, but it can be originated to the Turkish influence in Hungary. It is an essential part of the wedding dinner in the countryside. I use my mother’s recipe who makes the stretched version. This Strudel pastry is elastic, very thin and it is stretched by the hand. We make sweet and salty Strudel as well. Where I grew up, there were some typical fillings: poppy-seed with pumpkin, salty cabbage and sweet cottage cheese cream. Now you can make these on my special baking course. Come and join my culinary experience, learn about my family tricks and at the end of the course enjoy the result of your efforts.

So glad my friend booked this class and invited me to attend. There ended up being 4 friends who went, and we all had a fantastic time. Marti made sure to include each and every one of us in the strudel making process. She is so passionate about what she does and really made this an enjoyable experience. I feel this is well priced for what you receive - the bites and drinks were delicious and we got to take home the strudel that we had made. I would highly recommend to anyone - even if you do not know your way around a kitchen!
Marti was fantastic! Highly recommend.

This was such a lovely experience and Marti was wonderful. We made two kinds of strudel and had an informative and hands-on experience that made my friend and me want to try this at home. Plus, the wine, snacks, and ability to eat what we created made for a memorable evening.

What a brilliant way to spend a morning! We had a great time learning about how to make a traditional Hungarian strudel and loved the hands on experience. To round off the day we ate the strudel and washed it down with a local Hungarian wine. The studio set up was a home from home. Absolutely fantastic so please go and book this experience
Great experience. Everyone must do this

Had the best time learning to make and stretch strudel. It was great and would definitely tell my friends to do it when they visit Budapest. Marti was the best. She was very patient and made everyone feel right at home

I recently took part in a strudel-making class and it was an absolutely fantastic experience. We made apple strudel and a cottage cheese & cherry version. The instructor created a very engaging and hands-on environment, encouraging us to check the dough at multiple stages so we could really understand the process. It felt like I truly learned something—not just followed a recipe. The studio itself was beautiful and incredibly well-equipped. Honestly, if I ever open my own cooking space in the future, I’d love to model it after this one. The instructor was clearly well-prepared and experienced, and it showed in every detail of the session. Strudel is not something you can easily learn just from YouTube—this class made all the difference. Highly recommended!
Must do in budapest

What a great experience! Marti (the owner) is an amazing chef with a deep knowledge of cooking. The class was very hands-on and we came with a family of 5 including 3 young girls 8, 11, 12. I would take any of her classes.
A wonderful Budapest family memory

This was a highlight of my family's seven days in Budapest. We had a large group ranging from age 10 to 77, and every one of us enjoyed making the strudel as well as eating the fruits of our labor afterwards. Marti and her husband have a clean, welcoming, and convenient location, and Marti was so patient with our many questions. I would highly recommend this experience!!
Delightful and delicious!

The most amazing master class with strudel! We had a fantastic time with our family and kids. Marti is the most welcoming and kind host! A few hours went by in a pleasant atmosphere where we got to learn a lot. We tried two different types of delicious strudels we made from scratch, as well as local snacks and excellent wine while waiting for the strudel to bake. The studio is very cozy and stylish, we made lots of great fotos! A 5 start in every way, would love to be back!
