Halva (also spelled halvah, halwa, or halawa) is a traditional Middle Eastern sesame sweet with a light, flaky, melt-in-your-mouth texture. Our Cardamom Halva blends aromatic cardamom with rich, stone-ground sesame for a truly unique treat. This artisanal sesame candy is perfect enjoyed on its own, crumbled over yogurt or fruit, baked into brownies or cookies, or served as a gourmet addition to cheese boards, grazing platters, and charcuterie boards. Our halva is plant based, vegan, gluten free, kosher certified, palm oil free, and made with all natural ingredients. Each 8oz (227g) pack comes in a beautifully designed box, with 12 boxes per case, making it an ideal retail gift item. The shelf life is generally 3–6 months. While halva can be transported and displayed at room temperature, the ideal range is 65–75°F. For best results, refrigerate whenever possible to help reduce natural oil separation and keep the texture firm. Cardamom Halva is also a wonderful seasonal gift — a unique alternative to traditional sweets for Thanksgiving gatherings, Hanukkah celebrations, and Christmas holiday gifting.
