If dessert is your favorite part of any meal, the Greeks have a wide range of desserts and pastries to wet anyone’s appetite for sweet stuff. The Greeks have a different approach to their pastry and dessert making compared to western recipes that tend to rely heavily on creams and butters. It does not mean that the Greek desserts are not rich. They are and they use plenty of dry and fresh fruits and all kinds of nuts to make delicious mouthwatering combinations.

Some of the perennial favorites are Almond Brandy cake (Amygdalopita), Easter cookies (Koulourakia Pascalina), Fried dough balls (loukoumades), Lemon cake (Lemonopita), Rice pudding (Rizogalo see picture), Walnut Cake (Karithopita), Stuffed Melon (piponaki Gemisto) and many more.. Yum yum…
