Grand Candy Ponchikanots

Ponchikanots

Ponchiks are a regional type of donut. Fried dough stuffed with a custard and topped with powdered sugar. Grand Candy took over the old space of a popular former Soviet "ponchikanots", or place of ponchiks and this is a popular spot for a fresh, hot, and very cheap treat. Lots of locally made candy and chocolate for sale as well. Grand Candy's big competition in the ponchik realm came down from Gyumri and opened up a few blocks away. So if you want to try a ponchik with a chocolate custard filling as well, head to Ponchik Monchik.
