Ramadan is here, and let’s be real—the crowd is getting harder to impress. Gone are the days when a simple konafa with lotus would do the trick. Now, dessert shops are going all out, trying to outdo each other with the most over-the-top, mind-blowing creations.
And honestly? We’re here for it. Let’s dive into this year’s wildest, most drool-worthy Ramadan desserts.
1. Tarboush Si El Sayed – El Malky
This dessert isn’t just named Tarboush—it straight-up looks like one, giving major Ottoman-era vibes. It’s kunafa meets red velvet in a game-changing combo. But hold up—it gets better.
Inside, you’ve got three next-level filling options: freshly layered mangoes, crème brûlée and salted caramel, or coconut and strawberries. Choose your fighter.
2. Tacunafa – Le Doux
If you want something light but still packed with flavor, Tacunafa is the right Ramadan dessert for you. Imagine crispy kunafa shaped like a taco, stuffed with creamy goodness and fresh fruits. And the best part? It comes with a dip. Sweet, crunchy, and totally Insta-worthy.
3. El Khalsana vs. El Malfofa – Tortina
Tortina is back with a major dessert showdown, and it’s time to choose your side in this sugar-fueled battle:
El Khalsana: Crumble cookies with nuts, pistachio, vanilla sauce, fresh strawberries, and basbousa. It even comes with a tiny hammer so you can smash it yourself. (The pre-massacre ritual is a must)
El Malfofa: Kunafa wrapped around condensed milk, fresh cream, almonds, and gianduja chocolate. Basically, it’s out to start a whole new trend.
Which side are you on this Ramadan?
4. Marshmallow Biscotti – Sultana
The fan favorite Sultana’s Break It is making a comeback, bringing back two new flavors—Tiramisu and Mango. But the real wildcard? Marshmallow Biscotti. The secret recipe is still under wraps, but we’re beyond curious. Crunchy? Gooey? We need answers ASAP.
5. Tamr Pudding Tin Tin – Fati’s
Tamr (dates) lovers, this one’s for you. Imagine tamr cake soaked in a sticky toffee milk mixture, topped with tamr pudding, shortbread, and—you guessed it—MORE tamr.
Tin Tin is basically a love letter to dates in dessert form, and we are so here for it. If you’re not into tamr, you can choose Tiramisu Kunafa with coffee custard and strawberry Miclair, a kunafa and mille-feuille fusion.
6. Taro Kunafa – Ara
You’ve had kunafa with mango. You’ve had kunafa with Nutella. But have you had kunafa with taro? Yep, kolkas just went full-on Ramadan dessert mode, and honestly, we’re intrigued. Sweet, earthy, and totally unexpected. Is this the plot twist of the season? Only one way to find out.
Ramadan desserts just keep getting crazier, and we are SO here for it. Which one are you trying first?
