Delicious ! One of our favorites, dusted in fine ground walnut. They’re not overly sweet and the hints of cinnamon, clove and orange really come through in the honey they’ve been soaked in.MORE >

Product Description
1 pound of Baklava.
Baklava is a beautiful pastry with light, flaky layers of crust and a sweet filling, kissed with a honey syrup. Baklava is made with paperthin sheets of phyllo. The dough is layered on the bottom, two layers in the middle and a top layer. Phyllo is alternated with the nut filling to form multiple layers. These ingredients will take your taste buds on a journey through several layers of delight from the delicate phyllo dough with savory butter and nut mixture with a hint of salt finishing with the lemony honey married to cinnamon.

My daughter and I love your baklava!! Not only does this have a wonderful, delectable taste, but it also has a scrumptious and inviting texture: the nuts are hearty, the honey is perfectly sticky & sweet and the delicate phyllo flakes with every bite! The hint of clove that comes through gives such a nice finish to this heavenly treat. It is evident you use only fine ingredients. This is a gift I will share again and again....

I WORKED IN A MIDDLE EASTERN RESTAURANT FOR YEARS AND NEVER HAD BAKLAVA OF THIS CALIBER. MY STANDARDS ARE HIGH FOR 100% NATURAL, YIA YIA MARIA'S BAKLAVA EXCEED MY EXPECTATIONS IN EVERY WAY AND FORM. IT MELTS IN YOUR MOUTH AND THE FLAVORS ARE LIKE NO OTHER. BUY A BOX AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, YOUR ONLY REGRET WILL BE THAT YOU DIDN'T BUY MORE!!!

Excellent Baklava!

I had never heard of this brand of baklava until I recently received a one pound box as a gift. I lived most of my adult life in New York City where I developed a particular fondness for Greek food. I never thought that I would be able to find baklava of this quality locally once I moved to Albuquerque. The balance of flavors and ingredients I think is perfect. Please guys, how about giving us some other wonderful Greek desserts as well?

The first taste tells you they know what they are doing.

I think I have now tried baklava in several countries in at least three continents. That includes Greece for several years. I never expected to have one of the best pieces of authentic baclava pastry, I have ever tried, in Albuquerque NM. Yia Yia Maria's is something I will be ordering and sending to my family, I highly recommend it.

The BEST Baklava I've ever had!
Posted by Brian & Roberta on 17th Apr 2011
We went to the Coffee & Chocolate show today and sampled (and bought) Yiayia Maria's baklava. The filo is so light and the nut mixture is not the sickening sweet I find most baklava's to be. The mix of honey, cinnamon, and clove was just wonderful. So glad we can get the baklava at four locations in ABQ now.
