Honey Cake and Candle Making Museum

The Petrits family has been involved in honey cake, candy, and candle making since 1825. The tools and equipments collected on the attics and cellars throughout that time has found their worthy location. Bertalan Andrásfalvy opened the exhibition titled `Honey Sweet Memories` in the Honey Cake and Candle Making Museum on July, 6, 2003. The tools of all three trades are displayed at our exhibition.

The museum presents the history of honey cake making, the different honey cake and candle as well as the traditional Christmas fondant making techniques. We illustrate the way the tools were used by the help of a DVD so the visitors do not only use their imagination but can see the way these tools were utilized.
