Brooklyn Baklava Inc

The bakery is known for a balanced, less-sugary approach to traditional baking. Owner Mo makes date-filled maamoul cookies with no added sugar, relying entirely on the fruit's natural sweetness. Another standout is the pistachio-filled cookie, which encases a rich, textured baklava filling inside a delicate cookie shell. The hospitality here often includes samples of fresh baklava offered by the staff, who also pack boxes of assorted nuts to go.
