Special

Pashmak Persian Fairy Floss comes in 5 flavours costs $8 per pack and is served on its own or as an accompaniment to fruits, cakes, ice creams, puddings and desserts The word Pashmak means "little wool" in Persian, as the confectionery resembles sheep's wool. The pistachio is my favourite. Jaggers Stall 38
