Baklava is the sort of thing that you are better off to buy a piece or
two of rather than having whole batch of something that will deteriorate
long before you can eat it.That was the problem I had with
Galaktobouriko. That stuff is incredible but it is best eaten that day.
It is edible the net day but by day three it us pretty disappointing.

I made some one day while my then teenage son was at school and told him
to help himself. I assumed he would have one piece, maybe two. About an
hour later he was complaining about feeling sick and blamed it on the
baklava. He had eaten about 3/4 of it. I had never considered the
possibility of someone eating that much baklava.

I used to make that stuff. I brought some to the office. The
receptionist liked it. She would ask me to make it for her. She did this
for over a decade. I have that kind of effect on people.
