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.

Made in collaboration with chef Molly Yeh, this organic premium halva from Hebel & Co. features a nutty, just-sweet-enough combination of peanut butter, dark chocolate and sea salt. Good halva—a Middle Eastern sesame candy—combines tahini and a sweetener in just the right proportion to create a confection with a light texture. This one is a textural delight: a flaky, crispy halva that slices cleanly and melts in the mouth. The familiar nutty taste of tahini gets extra punch from swirls of peanut butter and dark chocolate, and the addition of crunchy puffed quinoa reminds us of eating an exceptionally good candy bar. Eat it as a snack or serve as a dessert—we like it for entertaining, or it makes a unique gift.
