The story

Anogyra Pastelli Festival in Anogyra

Anogyra, home to Cyprus's only Carob and Pasteli Museum, holds its dedicated Pasteli Festival each September, running eleven in the morning until eight in the evening, centred on live demonstrations of the long, traditional pasteli-making process from carob syrup. More than twenty local producers exhibit products, alongside carob soaps and cosmetics, live music and dancing filling the village streets.

Anogyra houses the only Carob and Pasteli Museum in all of Cyprus, a permanent institution documenting the growing, harvesting and processing of carob into pasteli, and the village's dedicated Pasteli Festival, held each September, builds its entire programme around the long, complex and genuinely toilsome process of making this traditional sweet from carob syrup.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

What distinguishes Anogyra's festival is its museum-backed depth: the village houses Cyprus's only dedicated Carob and Pasteli Museum, and the festival's live, extended demonstrations of the genuinely labour-intensive pasteli-making process, practicable only between September and May due to the sweet's heat sensitivity, give visitors production access unmatched by a typical tasting-focused produce festival

02

The mystery stays covered

More than twenty exhibiting producers, plus carob-derived cosmetics and soaps, extend the festival's product range well beyond the edible sweet alone
