Spain: The birthplace of churros, Spain offers the traditional long and twisted churro, often served with a thick, rich hot chocolate for dipping. In some regions, they may be thinner or thicker, and they are typically dusted with sugar and cinnamon.

Churros are fried until they become crunchy, and may be sprinkled with sugar. The surface of a churro is ridged due to having been piped from a churrera, a syringe-like tool with a star-shaped nozzle. Churros are generally prisms in shape, and may be straight, curled or spirally twisted.
