Mhancha

As a little bit of background, the word Mhincha means “coil” or “spiral,” a shape in which this pastry is traditionally presented on a large round tray to the bride the day after her wedding. A Moroccan wedding wouldn’t be complete without this iconic pastry, reminiscent of the famous baklavas.

At Dar Darkoum, we slice our mhincha at an angle to make it easy to enjoy individually. With each bite, you’ll notice a hint of cinnamon that delicately infuses this traditional Moroccan treat for special occasions.
