Local Mediterranean chain Pita Jungle has launched a new to-go menu item just in time for holiday parties – the Baklawa Box.
What: The classic Mediterranean dessert is made in-house with crunchy layers of phyllo dough drizzled with honey and sprinkled with pistachios.
- Boxes start at $16.
- Boxes are available at all 23 Pita Jungles in Arizona.
Did you know: Greek baklava is flavored with cinnamon and cloves, while Lebanese baklawa is flavored with cardamom and orange blossom water.
- There also are other small differences. Technically speaking, Pita Jungle’s version is a hybrid of the two.
Availability: Not to worry if you can’t get your during the holidays. The Baklawa Box will be sold through 2023.
