No confection defies description like halva: dense yet flaky, creamy yet crunchy, sliceable yet spreadable. While the word “halva” can refer to a number of different sweets around the world, arguably the most popular version is tahini-based halva, a dense, semi-soft solid sweet that can be sliced and eaten, or flaked into airy, melt-in-your-mouth crumbles. Real pistachio pieces in each bite add a bit of crunch to this complexly flavored halva. The naturally sweet pistachios' flavor comes through clearly as both a complement and counterpoint to the deeper nuttiness of tahini. Black nigella seeds, which have anise-y and peppery notes, add a bright accent to this earthy and aromatic treat.

The chocolate in Hebel & Co's halva is swirled in to create the perfect ratio of chocolate to soften the halva, yielding an especially soft, smooth texture. It's perfect for folding into baked goods or crumbling over oatmeal, yogurt or ice cream. We especially love how the ribbons of chocolate contribute sweet bursts of flavor but don't overpower the halva's nutty richness—think of this one as a sophisticated spin on chocolate and peanut butter.

This classic flavor of halva showcases the rich nuttiness of sesame in a versatile, ready-to-eat form. Aromatic vanilla adds a light sweetness that enhances tahini's creamy quality and tempers the natural bitterness of the sesame paste. We dare you not to eat it all straight off the spoon.
