Pitikas are thinly rolled delicate deep-fried pastries generously drizzled with warm honey syrup infused with fragrant orange blossom water.

Irresistible filo pastries filled with generous amounts of homemade almond paste, delicately scented with piney mastic and fragrant orange blossom water.

Filled with pumpkin, a medley of Greek cheeses, and the warming spices of cinnamon and cloves, they are a true holiday favorite.

Made with toasted almonds, sesame seeds, and caramelized sugar this handcrafted golden confection with its nutty taste is irresistible.
