What Are Funnel Cakes

Funnel Cakes are popular around the United States at ballparks, fairs and festivals, markets, school fetes; essentially, anywhere people meet.

They do not look like a funnel and don't really look like cakes!

Funnel Cake distributorsFunnel Cakes are made by pouring batter through a funnel into hot oil in a circular pattern and then quickly deep frying it until golden-brown. They are often served with powdered sugar, jam, or other toppings.

Funnel Cakes can also be made at home, with the use of a skillet. Click here to purchase Funnel Cake Mix.

Funnel Cakes are a popular offering at outdoor food stands in carnivals, County and Renaissance fairs, arts and craft shows and seaside resorts. When made at concession stands, a separate funnel is not used; instead, the batter is poured from a purpose-made pitcher (jug) with an integral spout.


Funnel Cakes resemble the items known as fried dough or "elephant ears," however these items are made with a risen yeast dough, whereas funnel cakes are made with an unleavened batter.

The Finnish version of Funnel Cakes are tippaleipä, and are traditionally served at May Day (Vappu) celebrations.
