Our berry garden tsoureki is a delicious combo of berry mixed custard, cream cheese and oreo crumble, right before your berry eyes! Tsoureki is a delicious brioche style bread, usually made during Easter. Its unique flavour comes from spices such as mahleb and green cardamom. In some areas of Greece, mastic is also used as part of the spice mix! Suitable for vegetarians.
A little more on the process of making tsoureki...It is quite a tricky business we must admit! It takes 2 whole days for the dough to be ready for processing. We start by activating our starter something that takes about 2-3 hours depending on weather conditions. We let our milk infuse with the spices and orange zest. Then, we are ready to make our dough which itself rests and rises for the rest of the day. It is stored overnight at specific temperatures so that it absorbs the right amount of humidity.
Day 2... Our dough comes back to life as we bring it to room temperature for 2 hours minimum. When it is time, we fill the dough with different flavour mix prepared on the day and then braiding starts! Of course our braids need to rest as well leading us to at least 3 more hours of waiting... Our tsoureki is ready to go in the oven when it's three times its size! Baking is followed by cooling down and glazing, making sure you are provided with an outstanding product! As Jean-Jacques Rousseau put it, “Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet.”.

Storage: This item should be kept in room temperature for up to 3 days, covered with a lid so that air doesn't dry it out (not during summer when there is heat as it contains dairy). It can also be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days, again covered with a lid for the same reasons, but only if temperature inside exceeds 25 degrees Celsius.
