Lukumades me meli (Natsakos Theodoros & Emmanouil) — Local services in Municipality of Heraklion

A family run cafe making delicious loukoumades.

Loukoumades are a type of Greek dessert that consists of deep-fried balls of dough that are soaked in honey, sprinkled with cinnamon and sesame seeds (original way). They are a popular street food in many parts of the country.

Loukoumades are similar to donuts, but are typically smaller in size and have a softer, spongier texture. They are traditionally made by mixing flour, yeast, sugar, and water to form a dough, which is then rolled into small balls and deep-fried until golden brown. After frying, the balls are soaked in a mixture of honey and water, and then served warm.
