Discover the cakes of Algeria
Every cake carries a piece of Algeria with it.
From almonds, pistachios and dates to orange blossom, lemon, honey and delicate spices, Algerian cakes bring together a remarkable variety of flavours, textures and traditions. Some are prepared for celebrations, others have been shared around family tables for generations. Each has its own character, its own craftsmanship and its own story.
Here, we invite you to discover them.
