Chebakia
in Marrakesh
Chebakia is Marrakesh's signature sesame-and-honey pastry: strips of spiced dough folded into flower-like shapes, fried until crisp, then lacquered with warm honey and scattered with sesame seeds.
Did you know?
Chebakia is especially tied to Ramadan in Morocco, when it is often served beside harira to break the fast with something sweet, sticky, and fragrant.
