The craft
Thirty-three layers, brushed one by one
Every pan begins the same way it did in Jackie’s family kitchen: sheets of phyllo laid by hand, each one painted with organic clarified butter, filled with nuts from California farms, and finished with a light syrup that supports the flavor rather than smothering it. Nothing is frozen, nothing is rushed — your order goes into the oven after you place it.

Meet Jackie
The heart behind every layer
Jackie’s story begins in Jordan, woven with threads from a small Lebanese village and the rich heritage of Palestine. A passion kindled in her family’s kitchen became years of perfecting the art of baklava — first taught in baking classes, then shared with all of Los Angeles.
Today her California home is a hub of Middle Eastern hospitality, where tradition meets meticulous craft and every guest is greeted with ahlan wa sahlan.

Questions, answered
What makes Jackie's baklava special?
Each batch is crafted with organic ghee made from organic butter, local organic nuts, and a blend of freshly mixed spices — a symphony of flavors that is a far cry from the supermarket variety.
How is it prepared?
Every baklava is meticulously built from 33 layers of phyllo dough, each layer brushed with butter and baked to a crisp, golden finish.
How long will my order take?
To ensure the highest quality, each order is baked as soon as it is received. On average, orders ship within 1 to 2 business days, with speed depending on the shipping option you choose at checkout.
How should I store it?
Enjoy it fresh for up to 10 days on the countertop. For longer storage, freeze it in a well-sealed bag — even after three months, the texture and flavor remain delightful.
Do you accommodate dietary restrictions?
Absolutely. Alongside the traditional recipe there are vegan, zero-sugar, and nut-free options, plus a gluten-free basbousa sweetened with monk fruit.
