DAHTILA KIRION
We love the long and delicate “ladies fingers” because they are so sweet that the honey literally drips off them.
RIZOGALO
Rice pudding – a thick and creamy treat!
KOURABIEDES
Traditionally made during Christmas, this is a shortbread-type biscuit, usually made with ground almonds.
MELOMAKARONA
An egg shaped dessert made with honey. Along with the kourabies it is a traditional dessert prepared primarily during the Christmas holiday season.
LOUKOUMADES
Loukoumades are little bite-sized fluffy sweet honey puffs, deep fried to golden and crispy perfection.. In other words, little bites of heaven!
TOULOUMBES
More cooking adventures involving fried dough. Simply delicious!
GLYKO TOU KOUTALIOU
“Spoon sweets” are preserves of almonds, dates, apricots, cherries, quinces or grapes, always served with a glass of cold water. We love to have this after a good meal to satisfy that sweet tooth!
PASTELLI
One of the healthiest snacks; sesame seeds, peanuts and honey! So simple, yet so delicious!
PALOUZES
Palouzes, is a type of grape jelly with a hint of orange-blossom flavour. A typical autumn delight most Cypriot families enjoy!
SOUTZOUKKOS
Soutzoukkos is nuts, mostly almonds or walnuts, dipped in Palouze. It has sort of a slightly sweet taste, so it’s perfect for a light snack.
