Baklava is a rich, sweet dessert pastry made of layers of filo pastry filled with chopped nuts and sweetened and held together with syrup or honey. It is characteristic of the cuisines of the Levant, the Caucasus, Balkans, Maghreb, and of Central and West Asia. In Greece it is traditionally cut into lozenge-shaped pieces as seen below.

After our Greece adventure I love whenever I can get a hold of baklava made by a Greek person! Delicious! Sorry, I have nothing in diamond shape available! Wishing you get over your sore throat soon!
