Znoud el sit — “the lady’s arms” — is one of the Levant’s most treasured desserts: crispy golden phyllo rolls wrapped around a heart of fresh qishta cream. At Al Gouna Sweets, we handcraft each roll daily, fry it to a delicate crunch, drizzle it with fragrant sugar syrup, and finish it with crushed pistachio and rose petals.
What Makes Our Znoud El Sit Special
The secret is in the contrast — layers of thin phyllo pastry rolled and fried until shatteringly crisp, holding cool, silky qishta cream that melts on the tongue. A light touch of syrup adds sweetness without overpowering the fresh cream. It is a dessert both delicate and indulgent, exactly as tradition intended.
Freshly Made, Never Mass Produced
Each batch is prepared fresh daily at our kitchen. No artificial preservatives — just crisp pastry, fresh qishta cream, real pistachios, and fragrant syrup, assembled to order.
Perfect for Every Occasion
A showstopper for family gatherings, Eid and Ramadan tables, weddings, and gifting — or simply a treat with your evening coffee. Pair it with our other Arabic sweets for a complete dessert spread.
