Baklava Large Tin Gift Box

Mashallah! Bought this as an eid gift for my parents, for eid al fitr 2020 and they loved it! The packaging was posh and the Baklava was certainly gourmet. We live in the UK but are originally Palestinian. Baklava has its origins between the Turks and the people of the levant so we can tell a good baklava when we see one and this was certainly good. It is a bit on the pricey side (even for good quality baklava). No doubt, the metallic box packaging and shipping from Turkey add to the cost; however the Baklava itself is, as described by the seller, made to gourmet standards. It is worth to spend the money for special occasions or gifts, as it will stand out from the regular stuff both in terms of quality and presentation. Though this is clearly better than the cheapest stuff, it is possible to get similar quality baklava from local UK shops with with regular packaging for a bit cheaper (depending on where you live). If I was just buying for myself or as normal, I would probably just buy something of similar quality, and save this luxury presentation product for extra special treats, occasions or gifts. If you are getting this as a gift etc then I give it 5/5 stars, as the extra posh presentation etc becomes worth it. If just for normal consumption 4/5 stars for slightly pricey cost. Brilliant Baklava overall, well done.

I follow someone on facebook, who has tried these. She said they are delicious, she isn't wrong. They are amazing, expensive, but it's nearly Xmas...

The tin is great and the food looks amazing it's a shame that the protective plastic was open so I have no idear how long its not been sealed for. Shame really.

I bought this as a present for my better half who loves baklava. The tin arrived quickly, securely packaged and looked great. The baklava inside was wrapped in plastic to ensure it was airtight. The baklava is much drier than others we've had as it's not soaked so much in sugar syrup. I think this is a good thing. This also makes it less sickly sweet, again a good thing. Rather than just sugar, you can taste the nuts and the pastry, which is wonderfully crisp and delicate. I've knocked a star off purely for the price, I bought it while it was on offer at Christmas and the value was fair, I don't think it's worth it's usual price of £38. I hope you find my review helpful.

Came quickly, presented in a beautiful tin. Sweets were drier than shop bought, but that actually made the flavour better. Not sickly like some. Will definitely buy again.

Not cheap, but these are just such a delight. Chunky, crunchy nuts, delicate pastry, beautiful, sweet honey. Amazing!

Great selection and very tasty. Shared these (under protest) with my family and they really liked them too. They are a little on the pricey side, but we liked them so much we’d still buy them again.

As good as I have tasted in Cyprus and Turkey supplied in a nice tin and the contents were very fresh and a nice size for snacking

Un peu cher mais d'une grande qualité et fraicheur.

Är mycket glad att så enkelt kunna beställa hem dessa lyxig läckerheter! Färska med rätt sprödhet! Rad 2 var inte skuren i portionsbitar så var lite svårt att få upp och skära själv. Beställde på fredagen och fick leverans hem på måndagen. Mycket snabb service! Kommer absolut att köpas igen! Tack! :)

I took a chance and spent an enormous amount of money (to me) on pre-packaged Baklava that was probably sitting in someone's overseas warehouse for 1000 years. I'm so glad I did! The quality of these delicate treats is literally like walking into a confectionery shop in Turkey and picking them out from a display case of freshly made pastries -- I kid you not! I am so pleased with the taste, texture, appearance, moisture level, and size of these mini treats that I will set aside money to purchase them in the future if Amazon still carries them. They are so pretty to look at and so tasty that you could throw a party, display and serve them to guests, and folks would rave. They are that good! Worth every penny.

Aggiornamento al secondo acquisto a gennaio 2024. Non appena sono tornati disponibili li ho acquistati nuovamente, posso dire con certezza che mai scelta fu più giusta. Arrivati a gennaio 2024 con produzione gennaio 2024 e scadenza gennaio 2025, quindi il primo acquisto, con prodotto arrivato scaduto, era dovuto evidentemente ad errori di logistica. Sono baklava profumati, dai colori vividi, la pasta è fragrante, la frutta secca ricca e gustosa, lo sciroppo zuccherino è ben presente ma non invadente: golosi, buonissimi, li riacquisterò senza alcun dubbio. **************************************** Recensione precedente con prodotto arrivato scaduto. Purtroppo, non posso dare più di 3 stelle in quanto il prodotto, arrivato il primo dicembre 2023, era già scaduto il 10/10/2023: contattato il produttore, che mi ha risposto in meno di 24 ore, mi è stato indicato di chiedere il rimborso direttamente ad Amazon, trattandosi di prodotto spedito da quest'ultimo, così ho fatto e sono stato subito rimborsato, senza necessità di restituzione prodotto, essendo un alimentare scaduto, ma con anzi indicazione di smaltimento da parte mia. L'imballo è ottimo, una scatola di cartoncino a cofanetto, che racchiude la scatola metallica esattamente corrispondente alle immagini online; quest'ultima è anche sigillata in plastica trasparente e, sul fondo è presente l'etichetta, purtroppo senza italiano, con i dati del distributore, gli ingredienti, i valori nutrizionali, il lotto, la data di produzione e di scadenza. Nonostante fossero arrivati già scaduti, ho comunque aperto la confezione e devo dire che, almeno dal profumo e dall'aspetto, i Baklava sembrano veramente invitanti: -) ottimo assortimento, partendo dai rotolini di sola pasta fillo imbevuta di miele, passando per vari rotolini con frutta secca, per arrivare a dei rettangoli di pasta ricoperti di una moltitudine e grande varietà di frutta secca, ben riconoscibili i pistacchi, le mandorle, le noci, -) tutte le forme sono fatte magistralmente, notevoli i piccoli cilindri con fili di pasta all'esterno, sembrano delle nuvole ricamate che, al tatto, sono croccantissime, -) anche i colori sono molto invitanti, tutto sembra curato e di qualità, un vero peccato non assaporarli, ma penso li riacquisterò.

Köstlich. Ich mag es gerne und man darf sich das mal gönnen, auch wenn es nicht sehr günstig ist. Also toll zum Verschenken.
