It all started in 1998 in a small workshop in Sitia, Crete. There, Garefalakis family respectfully tried to revive local pastry recipes whose origins are lost in the centuries. Thus they created with care and passion traditional handmade delicacies using exclusively natural raw materials of the Cretan land. Olive oil, almonds, honey, raisins and orange were harmoniously combined and created the Cretan Handmade Delicacies "Aretousa".
