- Szamos has been Budapest's marzipan dynasty since 1935 — the Szentendre marzipan museum is theirs too
- Chocolate-dipped boxes survive summer flights better than pure marzipan figures
- Confectionery passes both US and Indian customs freely
- Café gift boxes (2,500-6,000 Ft) look far more expensive than they are
