Original Wonderful Baklava,December 30, 2009
By Gigi Kfrom Farmingdale, NY
"One of our favorite purchases from Harry & David is the Original Baklava. We always order an item that this is included in (like the Tower of Treats) but this time we outdid ourselves. We ordered one order of Baklava just for us! It is amazing! With each bite, we try to decide what we are tasting and end up by going back for another small sliver to continue the taste. We would recommend this item for anyone that loves a truly delectable treat! Truly mouth-watering."

Baklavatastic!!!,December 26, 2009
By StephenJrfrom oregon
"i bought this from the store in medford, oregon and as soon as i opened it i could smell the honey almonds and the crust.... my mouth was watering just from that. i shared it with my parents and friends and we all agreed it was better cold and with a bit of pineapple on top to add extra flavoring."

Very good,December 17, 2009
By Kel Rfrom Long Island, NY
"I've ordered this several times and it's always yummy. Buttery, delicious, easy to eat. I've eaten fresh and deliciously moist baklava from real Greek establishments and that is by far the best, but H&D comes a close second."

Hoard it for Yourself,November 21, 2009
By Kitkunfrom Medford, OR
"First tried a small sample of this, and found it to be delicious. Soon bought a box from the store, and proceeded to enjoy one of the best treats I've ever had. It is a little flaky, but the taste more than makes up for that."

great gift for the hard-to-please!,June 20, 2009
By melissaWfrom new york, ny
"I get this gift every year for my father for father's day. He absolutely raves about it and looks forward to it every year. He saves a bit for himself, and there's plenty of left over for him to share. Best decision I made about presents in a long time---send him the baklava! :)"

Chewy but delicious,April 26, 2009
By Doc Barrettafrom Redwood City, Ca
"The baklava that I tried from Harry and Davids was not the best I have had texture wise. It was a little hard to take a bite from the piece without it falling apart. The flavor was ok but the pieces needed to be smaller so that one piece could fit into your mouth without you feeling like you are gorging."
