Baking baklawa started in my mother’s kitchen, where every Christmas was filled with the sweet scent of syrup, nuts and layers of beautifully crisp phyllo dough.

 

What began as a family tradition, BAKING BAKLAWA has now grown into a heartfelt venture dedicated to sharing the authentic flavors of my Lebanese and Palestinian roots.

​

This journey is more than baking; it’s a tribute to my mother, my upbringing and the lessons learned in her kitchen. For me, I like to keep those memories alive. Every piece is made by hand with care, using recipes that have brought comfort to friends and families for many years.

​

While my Baklawa is at the heart of what I do, my Maakroons hold their own special place too. The warm aroma of sesame, anise and our special blend fills the air, and every bite brings back the flavors you grew up with.

​

Baking Baklawa is personal. Every tray gets my full attention, every piece is wrapped with care. I take great exception to every detail when I’m baking because it’s more than dessert—it’s tradition, it’s family.

​

Through BAKING BAKLAWA, these family recipes have found new life. Whether it’s for a celebration, a gift, or simply a sweet moment in your day, there’s always a reason to enjoy a taste that feels like home.

​

From cakes and cupcakes, to chocolates, scones and traditional sweets, each recipe tells the story of my roots and the fun I find in creating them.
