Koeksisters, our homemade South African favourite

A beloved syrup soaked South African treat

Koeksisters are one of South Africa's best loved sweet treats, and we make ours fresh in store. Strips of dough are plaited, deep fried until golden, then plunged into cold, spiced syrup. That contrast of warm dough and cold syrup gives them their signature crisp outside, soft inside and irresistibly sweet, sticky finish.

Crisp, golden plaits soaked in sweet syrup

They are perfect with a cup of tea or coffee, on a weekend table, or as a sweet treat to share. For South Africans, a proper koeksister is pure nostalgia, the taste of home baking and family gatherings.

Made fresh in store

We take real pride in making our koeksisters the traditional way, and we ship them across Canada so a treasured taste of home is never far away.
