About Baklove

At Baklove, we take pride in crafting authentic homemade baklava using traditional family recipes and the finest natural ingredients — crisp layers of quality fillo pastry, pure butter, and fresh nuts.

Each batch is lovingly baked by Sema, an experienced Turkish-American dessert chef who has spent years perfecting her craft and sharing the comforting taste of home through her baking. Every tray reflects her care, passion, and attention to detail, creating desserts that are golden, flaky, and rich in flavor.

Our mission is simple: to bring the true taste of homemade baklava to New York, made with love and meant to be shared with family, friends, and all who enjoy the sweetness of tradition.

The Team

Sema

Head Baker & Chief of Sweetness

The heart (and hands) behind every tray of baklava! Sema mixes tradition, love, and a little bit of magic to make each dessert perfect. When she’s not baking, she’s experimenting with new recipes — and occasionally hiding the last piece of baklava for herself.

Yavuz
Tech Support & Taste Consultant

Every family business needs a hero behind the scenes. Yavuz keeps our website, orders, and gadgets running smoothly — and proudly claims the title of “Quality Control Manager” (a fancy way of saying he eats the samples).

Munu
Junior Chef & Sprinkle Artist

The loveliest member of our team, Munu brings fun, creativity, and sparkle to the kitchen. She’s always ready to help mix, stir, and decorate — and her joyful spirit reminds us that baking is all about love and laughter.

Ayla 🐾

Furry Supervisor & Crumb Inspector

Our Siberian cat, Ayla, takes her job seriously — mostly supervising from her favorite sunny spot and making sure no crumbs go uninvestigated.
She’s our unofficial mascot,

Testimonials

"Sema and the BAKLOVE team create truly delicious and decadent desserts. We started with an incredible assorted baklava tray as part of our Thanksgiving meal, and it was gone in no time, with barely a crumb left behind.
After that, it was clear we had to order assorted cookies as gifts for our family and friends so they could experience BAKLOVE’s exceptional baking firsthand.
We highly recommend BAKLOVE for yourself, your family, or any event that calls for outstanding desserts."
