HlelEm belfekya – Tunisian Honey-Date Sweetbread

Celebrate life’s sweetest moments with 7lel Embelfekya, Tunisia’s cherished ceremonial sweetbread, lovingly prepared for births, blessings, and joyful gatherings. This golden, sesame-crusted ring is soft, lightly sweetened, and delicately scented with orange blossom water, anise, and caraway seeds.

At its heart lie tender Medjool dates, gently cooked into a silky paste and subtly spiced with cinnamon—a hidden treasure waiting to be discovered in every slice. Brushed with honey and sprinkled with toasted sesame, each bite carries centuries of tradition, warmth, and celebration.

Sweet. Aromatic. Made for blessings.
