The Story of a Legendary Flavor

Famous for its origins dating back to the Ottoman Empire baklava is a product of tradition and craftsmanship passed down through generations.

Fresh pistachios in the filling give the dessert its signature aroma, while the syrup made from natural sugar enhances its balance of soft and crispy textures.

This isn’t just a dessert; it’s the story of dedication, patience, and attention to detail. A single bite of pistachio baklava takes you on a journey of unparalleled flavor.

Pistachio baklava appeals not only to your taste buds but also to your eyes. The vibrant green of the pistachios between the layers and the shimmering glaze of the syrup make it an irresistible treat. One of its standout features is its perfectly balanced sweetness, which brings happiness with every bite.

Made using traditional recipes that have stood the test of time, this dessert is recognized by UNESCO as part of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, reflecting its cultural significance and unmatched quality.

Premium Ingredients for a Superior Taste

The quality of pistachio baklava lies in the careful selection of its ingredients:

• Pistachios: Fresh and flavorful, bringing the dessert to life.
• Phyllo Dough: Silky thin layers, up to 40 sheets in each baklava.
• Ghee: Natural and additive-free, providing richness.
• Sugar: Pure and natural, balancing the flavors.

These ingredients come together to create a dessert that delights with every bite.

Ingredients: Flour, eggs, salt, water, starch, sugar, ghee, and pistachios.

Storage and Shelf Life: Since pistachio baklava contains sugar, it is best consumed fresh. 

Its shelf life is short, and proper storage is key to preserving its crunchiness:

• Store baklava in an airtight container at room temperature.
• Avoid refrigeration unless necessary; if refrigerated, consume within 5 days in winter or 3 days in summer.
• For the best experience, slightly warm the baklava before serving, as the natural ghee may solidify in cooler temperatures.
