Acerca de Douaihy Sweets
Douaihy Sweets is one of North Lebanon’s best-known makers of oriental sweets, rooted in the town of Zgharta and carrying the name of one of the region’s most established families. What began as a local sweets workshop has grown into a recognizable Lebanese brand with branches across the country and a steady export business, summarized by its own motto: “from Lebanon to the world.”
La casa es conocida sobre todo por los clásicos que definen un mostrador de dulces libaneses: baklava en capas y sus muchas variantes rellenas de frutos secos, maamoul de sémola y dátiles, knafeh caliente rellena de queso, mabroumeh y osmalliyeh. Además de las bandejas tradicionales, Douaihy elabora bombones, surtidos de regalo y cajas de temporada que llegan a los hogares libaneses durante el Ramadán, la Pascua y las celebraciones familiares.
Por qué Douaihy Sweets es importante
Douaihy is a good example of a regional Lebanese sweets house that scaled without losing its identity. It keeps the craft of Zgharta’s pastry tradition alive while making it available in Beirut, across Lebanon and to the diaspora who order boxes shipped abroad. For a directory of Lebanese producers, it represents the strong North Lebanon sweets culture that sits alongside the more famous Tripoli names.
