Hungarian Kakaós csiga, cocoa snail or cocoa rolls

Chocolatey cocoa swirls, puffy dough and a sprinkle of powdered sugar – this is the divine kakaós csiga (literally cocoa snail or cocoa rolls), the childhood favourite of all Hungarians. The baked wonder was invented by Mór Pösch, a confectioner in Göd, in 1908, who originally called the dessert chocolatey twirl (csokoládés tekerge). He made it for his friends on his 33rd birthday, but he made so much that even his customers got some. That was the point when the cocoa roll started its world-conquering journey. Since then, it’s been the staple dessert of school canteens, bakeries and Hungarian kitchens. It’s mostly consumed for breakfast, but there’s no rule when you should eat it: it’s just as good a morning-starter as the coronation of any meal.
