About us

Kozinaki — გოზინაყი in Georgian — is a simple thing: toasted nuts held together by honey or caramelised sugar. No flour, no butter, no fuss. In Georgia it is made for New Year; in our family it was made whenever the jar of walnuts on the shelf got too full.

We started cooking it properly in 2019, after one too many friends said «wait, you can just buy this somewhere, right?» — and it turned out that in Helsinki, you mostly couldn't. So we began with a stall at the Saturday market, and now we run a small kitchen that bakes every Thursday.

What's inside

Walnuts, hazelnuts, sesame, honey, sugar, a pinch of salt. That is genuinely the whole list. Everything is gluten-free by nature, and the classic recipe is vegan if made with sugar instead of honey — write to us and we'll do a batch.

Where to find us

Most Saturdays at the Hakaniemi market hall in Helsinki, weather permitting. The rest of the time — right here, by email.
