When you mostly know the loukoum in cubes, and you don't know the other varieties, it can sometimes be difficult to make your choice.

Don't worry, we've contacted you with a short guide to help you find the traditional loukoum that suits you.

Before going into the details of the flavors, here is a presentation of the 4 categories of this famous oriental pastry with flavors of rose, pistachio, almonds, baklava and much more.

The Classics

The classics : 

These are the traditional loukoums in cubes, the best known and those at the origin of the famous oriental confectionery and its variations.

Their natural flavour (original recipe), flavoured or garnished with pistachios, hazelnuts or peanuts.

The Sarmas

Sarma : 

Thetrendy product par excellence: it is composed of a thin layer of flavoured or milk-based loukoum filled with a melting cream.

This cream is a success, it  brings a note of greediness with its hazelnuts, pistachios, toasted almonds or even Oreo, biscuit, nutella...

Ideal for a gourmet and original gift idea

The Squares

The Squares:

This is the premium and elegant version of the loukoum. 

This loukoum is served in a square with a generous pistachio (or hazelnut) filling, and covered with pistachios, rose petals or sliced hazelnuts. 

The excellence of handcrafted premium loukoum

The Fingers

Fingers:

The extra tender version of Turkish loukoum, it comes in the form of a stick in which whole pistachios are encrusted. 

Melting in the mouth and rich in colour, with just a hint of aroma and colouring, it is an ideal alternative confection to sweets made up of many additives. Young and old alike have found their candy

But they all look just as good. What do you recommend?

First of all, although it is not yet as well-known as cubes, we recommend that all foodies try their hand at loukoums sarmas. 

It was rare until then to find this variety of loukoum in France to the great dismay of gourmets. 

And for good reason, the first bite  is often the moment of a revelation. We are often asked to describe sarma or its cream, 

Our answer: it's simply a unique product, like asking someone to describe chocolate to someone who doesn't know it.

Halfway between Turkish pastry and oriental confectionery, this artisanal and traditional sweet from elsewhere will not leave anyone indifferent.
