Light in Flavour

When you want a delicate sweetness in your baking, using White Sugar or Caster Sugar can provide a subtle sweetness that enhances the other flavours without overpowering them.

Fruity

Using fruit can add a natural, fruity sweetness to baking, creating a refreshing, light flavour or adding sweet tartness. White Sugar or Caster Sugar in baking, allows the flavour of the fruit to shine and Jam Setting Sugar preserves the taste of fruit in vibrant jams.

Nutty

Coconut Sugar bring a subtle nuttiness to baked goods, elevating the taste with a mild, natural sweetness and pairs beautifully with tropical flavours.

Spiced

Using sugars with spices like cinnamon, ginger, licorice or chai can lend a warm, aromatic sweetness to baking.

Caramel

Utilising brown sugars or incorporating caramelised sugar syrups creates a richer, deeper flavor profile, adding a hint of caramel or toffee-like taste.

Chocolate

Chocolate adds a decadent richness to baked goods with its deep cocoa flavour, making it perfect for indulgent treats. Try adding a deep flavoured Brown Sugar to the mix for enhanced chocolate flavour.

Method
Preheat oven to 180°C conventional or 160°C fan forced.
Process almonds, pistachios, Chelsea Raw Caster Sugar and cinnamon in a food processor until a course meal is formed.
Line the base and the long sides of a 20cm x 30cm pan with baking paper. Layer 3 sheets of filo pastry together, brushing each with a little butter. Fold layered sheets in half and cut pastry to fit pan. Sprinkle with 1/4 of the nut mixture.
Repeat process 3 more times with remaining pastry, butter and nuts ending with pastry on top. Trim pastry edges to fit pan. Cut 5 strips lengthwise through all pastry, cut each strip into squares. Pour over remaining butter.
Bake for 30 minutes, then reduce to temperature to 150°C conventional or 130°C fan forced and bake for a further 10 minutes or until browned.
Orange Syrup: Combine all ingredients and stir over low heat, without boiling, until Chelsea Raw Caster Sugar dissolves. Increase heat and cook without stirring for about 5 minutes or until syrupy.
Pour hot orange syrup over hot baklava.
Cool in pan and serve.
