Premium Turkish Sweets
UK Baklava, Lokum and More
The Baklava Box offers fresh Turkish sweets made in our UK kitchen and delivered across the UK. Ask different people what counts as a Turkish sweet, and you may get different answers. Baklava and Turkish delight are usually the first things people mention, while others may think of knafeh or maamoul. We make several of these ourselves, baking them fresh every day after you order, not taking them from warehouse stock.
Our Turkish delight is made in the traditional lokum style with sugar, water and cornflour, and no gelatine. We also offer baklava range made with filo, nuts and syrup, shaped by Ottoman food traditions, along with maamoul, syrup sweets and petit four. These treats come from the wider Mediterranean sweets tradition, not just one recipe or one country.
Our Turkish Sweets Range
Our Mixed Turkish Delight starts at a 500g box, a good entry point if you haven’t tried ours before, featuring strawberry, banana, orange, vanilla, rose, lemon and mint flavours in one selection. Alongside it, our full sweets collection includes:
Baklava Range
Crisp, layered pastry filled with rich pistachio, walnut or chocolate.
Syrup Sweets
Traditional syrup-soaked treats like Awam and Bamia.
Maamoul
Delicate crumbly pastries filled with date, pistachio, walnut or almond.
Petit Four
Bite-sized, delicate confections for something smaller and sweeter.
If you’d rather not pick just one, Assorted Bundle 1 gives you a 1kg Assorted Baklava Box, 500g of Turkish Delight and 400g of Petit Four in one Turkish sweets hamper. Assorted Bundle 4 is similar but swaps the petit four for 575g of Mixed Maamoul instead. Both bundles cost less than buying each item on its own. Browse all our bundle offers to compare.
