What is a rugelach?

Pronounced ROO-guh-lah, these beloved Eastern European Jewish cookies combine a buttery, flaky dough with vibrant fillings like apricot and chocolate. At Little Twist Bakery, our rugelach are handcrafted with classic as well as Asian flavors like ube, matcha, and pandan. Perfect for sharing (or not — we won't judge), these delightful treats add a touch of happiness to both everyday moments and special occasions.

This was my introduction to rugelach cookies and I was not disappointed! They’re delicious, guilt free bites. I thought they had just the right amount of jam/sweetness and walnut bits, wrapped in melt-in-your-mouth dough. I’ve tried the variety of flavors - my favorites are the fruity ones and Pandan. Definitely buying some for the family to enjoy for the holidays.

I was lucky enough to be gifted a delicious batch of rugelach from Little Twist Bakery! Or rather… my four-year old daughter was. But I didn’t tell her about them… instead I kept them to myself and had them for breakfast every day for at least a week! The dough was super flaky without being dry. And the filling had just the right amount of sweetness with a pinch of savory. I have a sweet tooth but I try to have savory breakfasts most of the time. So it was a win! About to put in my next order but I’ll get extra and share this time.
