Trdelnik pastries. Traditional czech sweets. Prague, Czech Republic.
From Wikipedia: Trdelník is a kind of spit cake. It is made from rolled dough that is wrapped around a stick, then grilled and topped with sugar and walnut mix. Trdelník is found in several Central European countries, most prominently Austria, Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary (where it is known to come from the Hungarian-speaking part of Transylvania, Romania). The word "trdelník" is of Czech or Slovak origin. The production of trdelník has a long tradition in the Slovak town of Skalica near the borders with Czech Republic. The original recipe was brought to Skalica at the end of the 18th century by the Transylvanian cook József Gvadányi, a retired Hungarian general. The original recipe was later improved by the inhabitants of Skalica to its final form now known as Skalický trdelník. The civil association Skalický trdelník was founded at the end of 2004 with the goal of keeping the tradition of the original open fire Trdelník production. The name trdelník comes from trdlo (originally a wooden tool for pounding or stamping materials in a stoupa, a hollowed-out log), the wooden stake the cake is wrapped around for cooking which gives it its traditional hollow shape. Nowadays, trdelník is very popular among tourists as a sweet pastry in the Czech Republic. A modern version filled with ice cream or other fillings, has been spreading recently from Prague, the Czech Republic
