Frequently Asked Questions (Google's Top Searches)

What is Halwa (Halawa Tahinia) made of?

Traditional Middle Eastern Halwa is a sesame paste confection. Halwani Bros Halwa is crafted primarily from tahina (ground sesame seeds), sugar, glucose, soapwort extract (to create its flaky texture), and whole/crumbled pistachios.

What does Pistachio Halwa taste like?

Pistachio Halwa offers a rich, sweet, and intensely nutty flavor profile. The smooth, savory taste of roasted sesame tahini balances the sweetness of the sugar base, while the green pistachios add a fresh, crunchy, buttery finish.

Is Halwani Bros Halwa vegan and gluten-free?

• Vegetarian & Dairy-Free: Halwani Bros Halwa contains no dairy or animal fats, making it 100% plant-based and suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets.

• Gluten-Free: It is made without wheat or gluten ingredients, though individuals with severe celiac disease should check product packaging for potential facility cross-contamination.

How do you serve Halwa?

Halwa is exceptionally versatile across breakfast, tea time, and dessert:

• Classic Breakfast: Slice thin pieces and sandwich them inside warm pita bread, crisp toast, or brioche (traditionally paired with a smear of clotted cream or butter).

• Coffee & Tea: Serve small cubed pieces alongside dark Arabica coffee, espresso, or mint tea.

• Dessert Garnish: Crumble over Greek yogurt, fruit parfaits, or warm cakes.

Does Halwani Bros Halwa need to be refrigerated after opening?

No, refrigeration is not strictly required. Halwa is shelf-stable thanks to its low moisture and high sugar/oil content. Keep the tub tightly sealed in a cool, dry pantry away from heat and direct sunlight. However, if you live in a hot climate, storing it in the fridge will keep it firm and prevent the natural sesame oils from separating.
