Two words: CANNOLI KRONUT. Er, "Cannoli Kronie", at the Jolie Kronie booth near Spring. Phenomenal.
Joile's Kronies, from Enrico's Pastry Shop in the Bronx, come in four other flavors, too. They are by far the best Kronut knock-off I've tasted.
Tabasco Tots at Torrisi's Beast of Feast booth. Fantastic.
The FuggedaBAOdit at Torrisi's Beast of the Feast booth. Also fantastic.

Fried Oreos. N.B.: MUCH better fresh and warm than sitting-around and soggy. Proceed accordingly.
Cannoli comes in all sorts of wacky formats and flavors these days. There's the Walnoli, so-called because it's "shaped like a walnut"...
You can get three kinds of "Pina Coladas". Some come in "Crazy Cups"...
Some in "Coconut Cups"...
Some are blended up fresh by enthusiastic Coney Islanders.
There's the Frozenoli, stuffed with soft-serve ice cream on the spot by these fine gentlemen...
And there's the "Birthday Cake" cannoli, as well as several other on-trend options, at the two Stuffed booths.
