On Liichtmëssdag (Candlemas) – 2 February – the carnival season officially began in Luxembourg this year. For fans of this time of year, it primarily means dressing up, attending parties, and celebrating. From a culinary perspective, however, it also offers something for those who may not be in a festive mood but still enjoy indulging in something sweet.
Fueskichelcher, also known as Verwurrelter (or carnival cakes in English), have long been an established tradition in the Grand Duchy. Texts dating back to the early 20th century show that this sweet and much-loved baking tradition is well over 100 years old and remains immensely popular to this day. The deep-fried pastry knots are loved across the nation.
It was therefore only a matter of time before Fueskichelcher featured in the RTL Readers’ Choice.
Readers are invited to share their opinion and help propel their favourite venue to the top of the current Fueskichelchen edition of RTL Readers’ Choice.
Voting is now open, with every vote counting.
Readers are also asked to reveal where they most enjoy eating Fueskichelcher when out and about. By casting a vote below, participants help determine the winner – the venue that receives the most votes from readers and listeners – who will then be awarded the RTL Readers’ Choice distinction for the best Fueskichelcher in Luxembourg.
All venues placing in the Top 10 will receive a sticker recognising them as one of the 10 best in Luxembourg.
