About Maamoul:
Maamoul cookies are much more than a dessert; they are a symbol of celebration, history, and heritage. These beloved treats hold deep significance in Palestinian culture, where they are prepared during holidays such as Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, as well as Easter and Christmas.
The art of making maamoul is often a family affair, passed down through generations. For me, some of my fondest childhood memories involve making maamoul with my mom and grandmother, where every step—from mixing the spices to pressing the dough into molds—was an act of connection and love.
Now, I’m thrilled to share this tradition with you and your child, offering a chance to create not just delicious cookies but also cherished memories together.
Why Choose This Class?
Our flour-based dough is tender, easy to work with, and perfect for beginners and seasoned bakers alike. This experience is not just about baking—it's about bonding, learning, and celebrating a tradition that has been cherished for centuries.
Reserve your spot today and join us for an unforgettable experience where you and your child will create something truly special together.
Let’s bake, bond, and celebrate!
