What We Are Eating Today: Anoosh
Deema al-KhuDair
We love a good gathering of family and friends here in the Kingdom, and delicious treats and coffee are indispensable companions to such gatherings. anoosh, a Saudi gourmet sweet shop established in 2003 with boutiques in seven cities across the Kingdom, has been
a part of many of my special occasions.
Whenever i have guests over, i make sure to order anoosh’s arabic coffee thermos along with their caramel ghuraiba and mixed ma’amoul plate, which comes with 34 cookie pieces that pair perfectly with the coffee.
My aunt invited me for iftar recently, and i decided to gift her one of the ramadan offerings the sweet shop has made especially for the holy month. I chose the petite box with 80 chocolates and an arabic coffee thermos. Gifts like these have made for very special moments this Ramadan.
Personally, I am a fan of their chocolate chip cookies. Their dough is unmatchable — soft in the center and satisfyingly chewy at the edges.
Anoosh has a luxurious and wide variety of sweet boxes, filled with delights such as caramelized pecan biscuits, wafer rolls, rocky bites, Belgian chocolate, toffee bites and salted caramels, variously available in small and large boxes.
With Eid al-Fitr coming up, the sweet shop is offering chocolate plates for the occasion. For orders or more details, visit their website www.anoosh.sa.
