I was introcuded the first time to this Funnel Cake. We visited the carnival, and he bought me one. And now every year I always try to look for any carnival going on just to get this funnel cake. BTW, funnel cake is a some kind of cake tyhat they deep fried, and the put in in the oil through the funnel after that done they sprinkle the fine sugar on it. Not sure what's on the batter but it's very yummy.

I've always wanted to try them. Only problem when we went to the fair we were on limited funds & there's never anywhere to sit & enjoy it & w/o the kids wanting to hock a chunk off for themselves. Now you've got me thinking I could figure out how to make one at home.... yummmm...

I've never had funnel cake but it looks so pretty and delicious in the photos. One day I have to go to a carnival and try on.

Yum, funnel cake. This is my one carnival food/or ballpark food weakness. I absolutely love funnel cake. The crispy brown outside paired with the soft, sweet inside is absolutely delicious and oh so bad for you.
My best guess is that the batter is very similar to that of a waffle, but it completely tastes different when it is deep fried. We've made them at home a few times using our waffle batter recipe and they really tasted similar to what we can get at the fair for a lot cheaper.
Anyone have a favorite topping for them? I prefer the powdered sugar but I've also seen them with cherry or strawberry topping as well.
