Sunday lunch traditionally ends with a homemade 'édes sütemény'. It is a point of pride for the host. At Christmas, 'édes sütemény' like Bejgli (walnut/poppy seed roll) is mandatory. Every family has their own secret recipe. Hungarian weddings feature 'süteményes doboz' (pastry boxes) given to guests to take home, filled with various 'édes sütemény'.
