Packaging of Olympos Halva Peanuts

Olympos Halva Peanuts by Papayianni Bros (est. 1949)

Papayianni Bros is a well-known producer of Greek halva, so I was interested to taste their Olympos Halva Peanuts. As expected, it was really good: pretty sweet, quite bitter and full of nuts (I found them in each slice of halva which I have cut).

Solid and integral texture of this dessert deserved a praise, too. However, for me it seemed, perhaps, too dry. As it was a halva with peanuts (which have never been my favourite nuts) I couldn‘t give it the higher rating. But, for sure, Olympos Halva Peanuts by Papayianni Bros is worth of trying.
