Saytad Bohça Kadayıf — shredded wheat parcel filled with fresh pistachio cream

Kadayıf Collection

Bohça Kadayıf Packed Kadayıf

₺1,900 / kg

Bohça — the Turkish word for a bundle or parcel — describes a kadayıf preparation in which shredded wheat is wrapped around a filling rather than layered beneath it. At Saytad, the filling inside our Bohça Kadayıf is pistachio cream made from fresh milk: a rich, smooth mixture of stone-ground Gaziantep pistachios and freshly prepared cream that transforms the product from a crunchy pastry into something closer to a petit dessert. The tel kadayıf parcel is cooked in pure ghee until golden, then finished with syrup — the exterior crispy, the interior creamy.

What Sets It Apart

The Cream That Changes Everything

🎁

The Parcel Form

Bohça means bundle in Turkish, and that is precisely what this product is — a neatly wrapped parcel of tel kadayıf with a surprise inside. The wrapping technique creates a contained, layered piece with a crispy exterior shell and a soft, creamy interior, making it a distinct eating experience from any other kadayıf variety.

🥛

Fresh Pistachio Cream Filling

The filling is a pistachio cream made fresh daily from whole milk and stone-ground Gaziantep pistachios. Unlike a simple nut filling, this cream is smooth, rich, and yielding — bringing a dairy depth that plays beautifully against the crunch of the kadayıf exterior and the sweetness of the syrup.

✨

Contrast in Every Bite

Bohça Kadayıf is built around contrast: the exterior is deeply crunchy from ghee-cooking, while the interior is soft and creamy. Hot meets cool, crisp meets yielding. This is not simply a kadayıf — it is a complete small dessert experience in a single parcel.

The Craft Behind It

Bohça: The Gift Form

In Turkish culture, a bohça is a bundle of fabric used to wrap and carry precious things — gifts, belongings, even a bride's dowry. The name given to this kadayıf is fitting: each piece is carefully assembled as a parcel, a small gift from our kitchen that reveals its full nature only when you bite into it.

At Saytad, our Bohça Kadayıf is filled with a pistachio cream prepared fresh each morning from whole milk and stone-ground Gaziantep pistachios. The tel kadayıf is wrapped around this filling, sealed, and then cooked in pure ghee until the exterior achieves a deep golden crispness. The contrast between the crunchy shell and the cool, silky cream inside is the defining characteristic of this product.

Because the filling contains fresh milk cream, Bohça Kadayıf has a shorter shelf life than our other products. This is not a limitation — it is a statement of integrity. Fresh cream cannot be stabilised without additives, and we use none. Purchase it, refrigerate it immediately, and enjoy it at its best within a day or two.
