Almond Basbousa/Hareesa/Nammoura Semolina Cake

Sweet but not sickly sweet.Excellent warmed up or cold straight from the tray.Has a lovely 'clean' rosewater syrup that is sweet, tasty, and keeps the cake moist but doesn't 'sog the cake down'. Lovely floral note but not 'soapy' or 'perfume-y'.The semolina has a lovely toothy-ness without feeling crunchy, gritty, or undercooked.A classic simple dessert with some subtle complexity, that would work for grown ups and kids alike.I have to struggle not to just tuck into the tray with a fork by myself!! Tastes fabulous with a strong cup of black tea or mint tea!!Very well packaged, arrived perfectly safe (from IL to WA!) and ready to eat!! Half tray was larger than expected, so plenty of servings for everyone. Very!! reasonable price for the quantity and quality. Super thrilled with my purchase!!💓😋

This is the fifth time I order this, it tastes just like what a basbousa should taste like. Was packaged with TLC. Seller is very responsive and nice. I made a mistake with the address and they shipped me another one on them. Very much recommended, you won’t regret it. It makes a really nice birthday “cake” for an Arab/middle eastern friend. & a great gift for your middle eastern parents. ❤️❤️

It was fresh at all

Product was good .Most important thing is shipping cost. It's a lot. Even though if I want to order ,will not. Or it should be overnight for that cost.

I am very happy with this dessert purchase. The product is delicious and fresh and the customer service is outstanding. The Libanais team are fantastic and are responsive to customer inquiries. I have purchased this yummy dessert many times from the Libanais team and have been very happy every time. I therefore highly recommend you try this very tasty dessert delicacy to tantalize your taste buds. You will be very pleased. And thank you very much to the Libanais team for their outstanding product and service. You are awesome.

Not enough chesse

This is ok but much darker than I get from the Arabic store. It also has more of a gritty texture than a smooth sweet that I'm used to. I think it needs mixed or even blended in a mixer or blender for a better taste and texture. The taste of the syrup is perfect but not exactly the taste I was looking for.

These taste just like the ones I used to eat growing up. Very tasty and you can tell the ingredients are all natural. The packaging was very impressive too. I usually get other brands that arrive all mangled up but not this one! It arrived really well put together as if I just got it out of the oven at home.
