Tahini Cake

Tahini has been a beloved ingredient across the Middle East and Eastern Mediterranean for generations, valued for its rich, nutty flavour and comforting simplicity. Found in both sweet and savoury dishes, it carries memories of family gatherings, shared meals and everyday rituals around the table.

Our tahini cake celebrates these traditions with a tender crumb, deep sesame notes and a gentle sweetness. Simple, fragrant and made to be shared, it is equally suited for special occasions and slow afternoons with coffee or tea.

Made slowly by hand and baked fresh for the occasion.
