I was born and raised in Istanbul — a city that is layered, loud, tender, chaotic, and endlessly inspiring.

Baklavaboerek began as a way to translate that rhythm into something tangible:
soft hand knit pieces and travel guides that go beyond checklists.

I believe in slow creation, strong character, and experiences that stay with you long after you leave.

Sweet and salty. A bit ours, but for all.
