Macedonian Halva Vanilla
Greek sesame halva · Vanilla flavour · Dairy-free · No artificial additives · 400g
Few sweets carry the history and warmth of Greek halva. Made from pure sesame paste (tahini) and sugar syrup, blended and set into the characteristic crumbly, melt-in-the-mouth texture that generations of Greeks have grown up loving, Makedonikos Halvas Vanilla is a timeless classic — the taste of childhood, Sunday mornings, and sharing something sweet around the table.
The vanilla flavour adds a gentle, warm sweetness that perfectly complements the deep, nutty richness of the sesame — creating a balance that is indulgent without being overwhelming. Naturally dairy-free and made without artificial flavourings or preservatives, this is a sweet you can feel good about. Slice it thick, crumble it over yoghurt, pair it with fruit, or enjoy it simply as it is with a strong Greek coffee.

☕ The Greek way: Slice a thick piece of halva and serve alongside a small cup of Loumidis Greek coffee. No fork needed — break it apart with your fingers, let it crumble, and savour it slowly. Add a drizzle of Kifinas honey for an extra layer of indulgence.
ℹ️ Halva has been made in Greece and the Eastern Mediterranean for over 3,000 years. The word derives from the Arabic "halwā" meaning sweetness — a testament to the shared culinary heritage of the region. Greek sesame halva is distinct from flour-based varieties found elsewhere: crumbly, nutty, and deeply satisfying, it remains one of the most beloved traditional sweets in the country.
