Halva — a traditional ingredient in Bucuria confectionery

Halva

Sunlight absorbed by ripe sunflower seeds transforms into a wonderfully delicious and fragrant product known as halva. This traditional Eastern delicacy, with its rich history, dates back to ancient times. It is believed that halva originated in the Middle East, and in Arabic, the word “halva” literally means “sweetness.”

Sunflower halva is often used in the production of wafers and candies, enriching them with its distinctive flavor and creamy texture.

Try our “ARTEK” (crema de halva) wafers — a perfect harmony between delicate wafer layers and the refined taste of halva. Or indulge in our “Baton” (halva și susan) candies — a delightful treat combining the rich sweetness of halva with the gentle crunch of sesame seeds, offering an authentic taste of the East.
