Is this flakey? I remember the halvah we used to have at home was flakey.

No , in fact it taste kind of gritty and it is way to sweet. I remember Halvah from the Jewish deli down the street form my old business 30 years ago. It was flakey and had the perfect sesame taste to it. Let me know if you find it and I will do the same for you. Happy Holidays

What is a complete list of ingredients?

The complete list of ingredients is on the label on the container. Halvah is simply sesame paste mixed with a sweetener. Some put pistachio or almonds in it. But if you don't see any pistachios or almonds then there aren't any in it and, besides that it would be on the label.
