Premium Selection

Pistachio Roll Fıstıklı Dolama

₺2,500 / kg

The Pistachio Roll — known as dolama or sarma in Gaziantep — is where technique meets abundance. Ultra-thin phyllo sheets are rolled tightly around a generous core of stone-ground Gaziantep pistachio, then baked in pure ghee until the outside shatters at the first bite while the interior remains richly nutty and satisfying. Each roll is shaped entirely by hand.

Why It Tastes Different

Three Things That Make the Roll

🥜

Generous Pistachio Fill

We pack each roll with significantly more pistachio than standard recipes, creating a filling-to-pastry ratio that puts the nut's natural richness front and centre in every bite.

🌀

Hand-Rolled Form

Every roll is shaped individually by hand — phyllo wrapped tightly and evenly around the filling, then sealed at each end. No two are identical, and that is exactly the point.

✨

Two-Texture Bite

The contrast between the shattering crispy shell and the dense, moist pistachio interior is what makes this one of Gaziantep's most beloved forms — satisfying in a way that flat baklava simply cannot replicate.

The Craft Behind It

The Art of the Roll

The dolama and sarma are rolled pastries that showcase the baklava maker's skill in a fundamentally different way from flat-layered forms. Instead of building up horizontal layers, the phyllo is wrapped vertically around its filling — requiring a steady hand, an eye for even tension throughout the sheet, and enough practice to ensure the roll bakes uniformly from its centre to its edge.

At Saytad, our pastry team rolls each piece entirely by hand before placing it in copper trays. Generous amounts of ghee are applied before baking. After leaving the oven, each tray receives a measured pour of our signature light syrup — enough to add sweetness and moisture without overwhelming the roasted character of the pistachio. The balance is everything.

The Pistachio Roll appeals to those who want bold, concentrated pistachio flavour in every bite — with a satisfying crunch that holds up beautifully even hours after baking. It is a product that rewards the maker's patience and the customer's appreciation for genuine craft.
