Turkish Desserts

Turkish desserts are celebrated for their syrup-soaked layers, milk-based puddings, and delicate pastries filled with nuts. Baklava combines thin pastry sheets with pistachios or walnuts, künefe pairs shredded pastry with melted cheese and syrup, and sütlaç offers a creamy baked rice pudding. Lokum, also known as Turkish delight, adds a soft, fragrant sweet often served with coffee or tea.
