These were really appealing in the sense that my husband and I love middle Eastern desserts but can't be doing with the whole ffaff they usually entail to make. These were ideal for assembling during a lockdown morning. Who would've known shredded wheat makes the perfect alternative for kadaifi! I used a mix of pistachios and walnuts. So easy to put together and though not a perfect imitation of baklava these certainly make delicious little dessert pots. Be generous with the honey but as always, go easy on the rose.
