4Portokalopita (Greece)

If you love citrus desserts, Portokalopita, or Greek orange cake, is a must-try. This unique dessert is made using shredded phyllo pastry mixed into a yogurt-based batter flavored with fresh oranges.

After baking, the cake is soaked in sweet orange syrup, creating a wonderfully moist texture with intense citrus flavor. The combination of crispy pastry strands and soft cake makes it unlike any ordinary sponge cake.

Served chilled during the summer, Portokalopita is especially refreshing.
