A Legacy That Started in Old Jerusalem

In 1860, deep in the heart of Jerusalem’s Old City, a small pastry shop opened its doors. It was run by Mohammad Zalatimo, who specialised in a traditional sweet called mutabbaq. His dedication to handmade quality and authentic flavour planted the roots for what would become a legendary name in oriental sweets , Zalatimo Brothers for Sweets.

Today, more than 160 years later, Zalatimo remains a household name in Jordan and across the Middle East and North Africa. The brand is known for producing some of the finest baklava, maamoul, and traditional biscuits, made with recipes passed down through generations.

From Jerusalem to Amman and Beyond

In 1986, the Zalatimo family opened their first modern shop outside of Jerusalem, in Amman, Jordan. This step was a turning point. It allowed the family business to grow, while still preserving its traditional identity.

Since then, Zalatimo has continued to expand, becoming one of the most recognised names for premium oriental sweets in Jordan and across the MENA region.

What Makes Zalatimo So Special?

Unlike mass-produced sweets, Zalatimo products are handcrafted using high-quality ingredients like pure ghee, pistachios, walnuts, and semolina. Their products are elegant in flavour, with just the right amount of sweetness.
