croatia — Dasaki Bakery

Kataifi

This amazing dessert is made with roughly chopped walnuts, (or sometimes other nuts), scented with ground clove and cinnamon then wrapped into buttery crispy kataifi pasty and bathed in spiced syrup.. Simply delicious..

Mum told me that, growing up, when Bapou went to the Greek bakers, he would come back laden with general supplies like breads and cheeses and always a tray of baklava and Kataifi. It was always a treat.

😋 Enjoy!
