What is Mlabes?
This elegant pastry is stuffed with a yellowish paste of ground almonds finely perfumed with an orange zest, the whole coated in a thin layer of white meringue flowered with rose extract, and finally decorated with a silver leaf that gives it a royal look.
Mlabes originally comes from Sfax, a city located at the center of Tunisia. Sfax is the second economic power of the country and indisputably the capital of the pastry making. The city has a rich history that includes a succession of several civilizations. And guess what? Pastry makers picked the best techniques from each one of these civilizations and combined them together to make today’s world-class treats.
Our Mlabes Almond recipe is authentic, and acquired from the best chefs in Sfax. Bite gently and you will be instantly transported to the Medina of Sfax. Bon appetit!
What is Makroudh?
Makroudh is a diamond-shaped pastry from North Africa. It is made with flour and semolina, filled with superior quality Deglet Nour dates, and fried or baked for a golden finish.
Originally from Tunisia and more precisely from the historic city of Kairouan, it made its way to other neighboring countries such as Algeria or Malta. But no matter where it goes, it is always synonym of party and celebration.
We have carefully created our makroudh from the best recipes inherited from mothers to daughters; You will have the impression of walking through the alleys of Kairouan, less the smell of jasmine ...!
