Question

Halva refers to a dense type of candy made in many different countries around the world. The two distinct types of halva made from either flour or tahini differ in their consistency and flavor. Tahini is a nut-butter made from sesame seeds. Halva made from wheat flour is typically lighter and gelatinous, like a pudding. Halva made from tahini is more solid and crumbly, like fudge. Bakers flavor halva with local ingredients and sweeten it with sugar or honey.
Halva has always been made in Arabic countries or those influenced by Arab traditions. Because of the spread of Islam through Africa, Europe, and Asia, halva has spread to these areas as well. People bake halva in Spain, southern Europe, the Balkans, Greece, Turkey, Russia, India, North Africa, and many other locations around the globe. In these parts of the world, halva is as popular as cookies or fudge brownies. Mothers bake it for their children, and bakers make it in their shops. Because it is so popular and widespread, businesses produce halva commercially and distribute it through grocery chains and candy shops.
The delicacy has actually found its way into language in the form of expressions. For example, in Greece, referring to another person as “Halva” is similar to calling that person fat or chubby. In the Balkans, a good product can “sell like halva,” which means the same as the English phrase, “sells like hotcakes.” Perhaps in the future Western nations like America or Canada will come to enjoy this delicious worldwide sweet.
