Hey, Toronto foodies! Get ready to treat yourself to something seriously special. Levant Pizza, the cozy spot at 899 Bloor St W that you already love for its wood-fired pizzas, is shaking things up with two incredible new desserts: Pistachio Cream Kunafa and Chocolate Crunch Kunafa. If you’ve got a sweet tooth or just love trying out unique flavors, these are for you.


So, What’s the Deal with Palestinian Kunafa?

Kunafa is this amazing Middle Eastern dessert with crispy shredded pastry, melty cheese, and a sweet syrup drizzle. Levant Pizza is taking it to the next level with their own creative twists. Think comfort food meets luxury dessert vibes.


Pistachio Cream Palestinian Kunafa: Your New Favorite

Picture this: warm, gooey mozzarella and akawie cheese wrapped in crispy kunafa pastry. Then, they go all out with creamy pistachio, a touch of rose water syrup, and a sprinkle of crushed pistachios. It’s sweet, nutty, and has that perfect hint of floral from the rose water. You’ll be thinking about it long after the last bite.


Why You’ll Fall in Love:

  • Cheese Pull Goals: That mozzarella and akawie combo is unreal.

  • Fragrant & Sweet: The rose water syrup adds this dreamy, exotic vibe.

  • Crunchy Goodness: The pistachios add just the right amount of texture.

Chocolate Crunch Kunafa: Dessert Goals

Now, if chocolate is your thing, this Palestinian kunafa is calling your name. It’s got the same cheesy, crispy base but with creamy pistachio, espresso syrup, and crushed walnuts. It’s rich, indulgent, and has a little coffee kick. Honestly, it’s the kind of dessert you’ll want to savor slowly—or maybe not. No judgment here!

Why You’ll Love It:

  • Chocolate Lovers Unite: A deliciously modern spin on a classic dessert.

  • Coffee Perfection: The espresso syrup adds depth without overpowering.

  • Crunch Factor: Crushed walnuts for the ultimate texture balance.
