EGYPT-GIZA-TRADITIONAL DESSERT

An Egyptian baker prepares qatayef for sale outside a large pastry store in Faisal district of Egypt's Giza province, June 15, 2017. Surviving over centuries, kunafa and qatayef are made of a mixture of flour, water, powdered milk and other materials. Customers of different ages, including men, women and children, buy kunafa and qatayef to cook them before sunset, the end of the fasting day, to enjoy them as desserts after the fast-breaking meal known among Muslims as iftar.
