Alibinisis Kourabie with White Chocolate Compound Coating - 320g

About the product

This is a kourabie, the classic Greek shortbread-style cookie made with butter and almond, finished with a white chocolate compound coating instead of the traditional dusting of powdered sugar. The dough includes ouzo and rose water, which are common flavourings in this type of biscuit, and the base recipe contains almond at 9%. Each pack holds 320g of coated cookies, suited to retail shelves or dessert counters looking for a holiday-style sweet available year round. The coating is an imitation white chocolate (22%) made with palm kernel fat rather than cocoa butter, giving a firmer set at room temperature.

About the company

Alibinisis is based in Chalkida, Evia, and produces bread and pastry items for both retail and food service customers. The company runs two separate production facilities, one for deep-freeze storage at -18°C and one for dry storage, which allows it to handle fresh, frozen and ambient-stable products across its range. It supplies both the Greek domestic market and export markets, and describes its approach as building recipes around tradition while applying modern quality standards in production. The company works across bread, pastry and sweet product categories rather than specializing in a single item type.

Instructions

Kourabiedes with a white chocolate coating are typically associated with the Christmas holiday season in Greece, though they are sold and eaten outside that period as well. In home preparation, the cookies are baked, cooled fully, then dipped or coated in melted white chocolate and left to set, with the coating needing a few hours to firm up before serving. Store this product at ambient temperature, and once opened, keep the cookies in an airtight container to protect the coating and maintain texture.
