Originating in Egypt, you can find this crowd pleaser all over the Middle East, North Africa, and surrounding areas. We have chosen Orange Blossom flavored syrup for our rendition, but you can find this tasty treat flavored with Rose as well. Diamond cut and studded with nuts, this pastry goes perfectly with a cup of hot tea or coffee.
