December gatherings

For the month of full rooms: office lunches, open houses and visits.

December fills up with tables to bring something to: the office lunch, the open house, the evening at a relative’s. Ajsel makes the sweets and cakes for them in Kitchener, with the price in front of you before you order.

The box of 40, for a room of people

For a gathering, an office, or after a nikah. Forty assorted Turkish and Balkan syrup sweets, sized for a meeting table or an open house, and needing five days’ notice.

A gift box of 12, to bring when you visit

Hurmašice, şekerpare and assorted syrup sweets. Syrup is a preservative, so the box keeps for days and travels well, which a buttercream cake does not.

A signature cake for the table

One of Ajsel’s set designs in your flavour, with your message on top: pistachio, rose and lemon, fudge chocolate, red velvet. The 8-inch serves 16–20, the 10-inch 30–35.

Halal is how the kitchen is built

No gelatin in anything, including stabilisers and fondant. Alcohol-free extracts only. No rum or liqueur in any syrup. Ajsel stands behind it by name, and the whole policy is on the What’s in it page.

Book early in the month

December weeks fill. The calendar only offers dates Ajsel can genuinely make, and it stops offering a week once that week is full, so the earlier you order, the more dates there are to choose from.

The cakes, with their prices

Prices are in CAD and final; no tax is added. A “from” price is a starting point that Ajsel confirms with you before anything is paid.
