I bought Sugarless Halva with Fiber and Walnuts by Achva at random. All the information on its packaging was in Hebrew language, so only later the Google translate helped me to realize what I have got… To be honest, I would refrain from sugarless halva as such because I don’t like all those artificial sweeteners in general. But this unintentional purchase proved that I had some wrong prejudices.
After trying Sugarless Halva with Fiber and Walnuts I have to recognize loudly that it was incredibly good! Quite unexpected, but without sugar the taste appeared even stronger and clearer. Obviously, it was all about sesame and walnuts! Such mildly bitter combo seemed really delicious and almost irresistable. However, this halva was really nourishing, so it should be treated more as a snack than dessert. Bear in mind. What concerns the texture, it was quite oily and had a little bit sticky surface, but anyhow I could cut it with ease.
So I had only good impressions of Sugarless Halva with Fiber and Walnuts by Achva. That was a real bliss for halvamaniac like me.
