Description:

Konafa cream is a rich, creamy filling used in various types of konafa desserts, adding a luxurious texture and flavor. This cream is typically made from a blend of ingredients such as milk, sugar, and cornstarch or semolina to thicken it. Sometimes, it includes a touch of vanilla or orange blossom water for added aroma and a hint of sweetness.

The cream is cooked until it becomes thick and smooth, then spread between layers of konafa dough, which is often made from fine shredded phyllo-like pastry. The combination of the creamy filling and the crispy, baked konafa dough creates a delightful contrast in textures. Once baked, the dessert is soaked in sweet syrup, usually flavored with rose or orange blossom water, making it even more irresistible. Konafa cream desserts are commonly enjoyed during special occasions and festive times like Ramadan, offering a comforting blend of sweet, rich, and floral flavors.
