This Knafeh Stick Is the Dessert Everyone in Amman Is Obsessed With

If you haven’t tried the viral knafeh stick in Amman yet, this is your sign. Aghati Sweets has taken one of Jordan’s favorite desserts and turned it into a fun treat that’s impossible to resist. Expect stretchy melted cheese wrapped in crispy knafeh dough, served on a stick. It is fried fresh in front of you, then coated in your favorite topping.

It’s made at a live station. You get to watch your knafeh stick being fried until golden before it’s dipped in Lotus, chocolate, pistachio, or classic sugar syrup. And when you take that first bite, get ready for an unreal cheese pull that’s taken over social media.

At Aghati Sweets, the dessert selection goes way beyond knafeh. You’ll find beautifully made cakes, fresh strawberry tarts, buttery Danish pastries, crispy baklava, and plenty of traditional Arabic sweets. It’s the perfect place whether you’re craving something classic or something new.

If you’re visiting during the summer, don’t miss their croissant soft serve. They fill a fresh, flaky croissant with creamy soft serve ice cream for a dessert that’s light, refreshing, and seriously delicious.

With branches in Dabouq, Nazzal, Al Rabieh, Al Istiqlal, Cosmo Seventh Circle, and Tabarbour, it’s easy to see why so many people keep coming back for more.
