Makeaoniko Sesame Snack Bar, Greek Sweet Treat 50g (1.8oz)

Makeaoniko Sesame Snack Bar is a Greek sesame bar — the pasteli format, one of Greece's oldest and most enduring confectionery traditions, where roasted sesame seeds are bound with honey into a hard, chewy bar that has been eaten in the Aegean world since antiquity. Makeaoniko is a Greek food brand producing traditional Greek confectionery and specialty foods — the sesame bar being the product that connects most directly to the ancient Greek and Mediterranean tradition of consuming sesame with honey, a combination that appears in ancient Greek texts as both food and athletic sustenance. Pasteli — the Greek honey-sesame bar — is one of the oldest confectionery formats in recorded history: sesame was cultivated in the ancient Near East and traded throughout the Mediterranean, and the combination of sesame seeds with honey or syrup to make a portable, energy-dense bar has been documented in ancient Greek and Roman sources — Pliny the Elder mentions sesame-honey confections, and the tradition continued uninterrupted through Byzantine and Ottoman times into the modern Greek confectionery market where pasteli remains a staple snack, souvenir, and traditional sweet. Eat as an energy-dense snack between meals, serve on a Greek or Mediterranean cheese board alongside dried fruit and nuts, pack for hiking or travel as a naturally energy-rich portable sweet, or share as the authentic Greek sesame bar that connects modern snacking to one of the oldest confectionery traditions in the Mediterranean world.
