Baklava Small Gift Box

So on a whim, I decided to order organic tea from PUKKA anda tin of MUGHE Gourmet assorted baklava. First I sent both to my sister in Germany.... without any indication who sent it . . . then I decided I would send the same things to my cousin in Canada (my cousin is very close to my sister, and they speak frequently, I figured they would share their puzzlement as to whosent the goodies! Then I sent one to a family friend in France. . . and the rumor mill got going in earnest. It was fun: BUT, the upshot was that they all LOVED Mughe's balkava. So I thought... hmmmm.... I want to try it... and I ordered the same combo (tea and baklava) for myself, and WOW.... It is delicious! It is nothing like baklava I had eaten before. Most often it is very gooey, inedibly sweet, and just feels like a cannonball in your stomach... But, I've never had this kind of baklava --it's dry, nutty, with a slight crispiness to the pasty... and the fillings they use are various --including almonds, hazelnuts, pistachios..mostly ground up, but some whole as well. It's a really great product and received great "reviews" from all the friends and relatives I sent them to... (yes, after I sent them out to those first three recipients, I just kept going and ultimately sent out about 9 or 10 combo tea and baklava gifts. It was a lot of fun.

It was a gift and it was appreciated. I am told it was good & fresh.I will probably be back to buy for me.

I like this brand, they make the best turkish floss. I tried my best to message the seller, which was impossible, about my experience. I did not want to leave a negative review, but I was so frustrated that I could not tell them my experience, this is the only way. The baklava was stale, dry, had a bad taste and looked like Tom Brady used it as the football in his last Super Bowl. Or maybe dropped from the Empire State building. The tin was dented. I did not return because I was so irritated, that I just threw it away. I had a feeling that someone possibly ate from the tin and returned it and it was rewrapped with plastic. There were several large pieces missing, as I bought this for the 3 mussel shaped baklava. I don't believe that any of this is the seller's fault, as I stated, this is a great brand that I have never had a problem with. Amazon did ship it in a bag with NO PADDING, which this is a delicate item, but that does not explain missing baklava, dry, stale and the weird taste.

Not bad, but not worth 28 bucks. Very dry. Dry like Shredded Wheat with nuts, dry.. I think my expectations were too high.

Very tasty...nice tin box. Just right as a small sampler.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:This is the second best baklava I've had. It was fresh and packaged well.

Honestly when I opened them, they were really dry and tasted steal. They need more of the honey sauce they put on it. Would never buy them again.

For being in a fancy tin, you would think sitting in a warehouse would cause this crispy, crunchy dessert to taste off or begin to get stale; however, this was so fresh it tasted better than the ones they sell at the restaurants! Out of this world!!!
