Greek vs. Cypriot Loukoumades – What's the Difference?

At Loopi, we celebrate both Greek and Cypriot dessert traditions — and loukoumades are the golden link between them. But did you know there’s a sweet rivalry between the two?

Greek loukoumades with honey and cinnamon are light, airy, and soaked in golden syrup. They’re often served with a dusting of cinnamon and a crunch of walnut. You’ll find these classic bites across Athens — and of course, at Loopi in the heart of the city.

Cypriot loukoumades are slightly crispier, made to soak in thick syrup for that chewy texture you can't resist. They’re a staple at Cypriot celebrations — and now, a signature part of our #LoopiExperience.

Whether you love the traditional or are curious to compare, grab a sharing box and dive into this joyful dessert experience.
