Tsoureki is a traditional Greek Easter bread shaped as a braided loaf. Nowadays, it has become so popular that you can find it in pastry shops and bakeries all year round.

The excellent ingredients used make all the difference. Fragrant cultured butter, fresh whole milk and free-range eggs are mixed in the dough along with special aromatic spices. Greek masticha, mahleb and cardamom, combined with Madagascan vanilla and organic orange zest create a unique flavour profile.

This limited-edition Christmas tsoureki comes filled with creamy almond frangipane and our very own mincemeat, made with partially organic dried fruits (raisins, sultanas, currants), organic candied orange and lemon peel, warm spices and smooth brandy. It is topped with a special almond & hazelnut glaze.

"The most imaginative mix of Greek and British tradition. Never thought tsoureki and juicy mincemeat would go so well together, but this is a delectable, fragrant masterpiece" - Claire

Most people make this sweet bread using dry yeast. Our tsoureki is naturally leavened with a special sourdough starter that delivers amazing flavour, structure, and prolonged shelf life. It takes 3 days for each loaf to be made, but it's really worth it!

The portioned dough then spends a night in the fridge for further flavour development until it's time to carefully braid each loaf. The loaves are left to proof for several hours until 2.5 times in size. Just before baking, we egg wash their surface for shine and sprinkle almond flakes for a truly festive delight.

Both children and adults love tsoureki for its fluffy texture. It's a treat that can be enjoyed on its own or with your favourite hot brew.

Order it just for yourself, to share with your friends & family or as a gift for someone special!
