Tips of Tinos
The sweets of Tinos, made with the few ingredients of the island, surprise with their originality. From all these (xerotigana, walnuts, pastelia, fish, celery pies) the bites stand out.
These tiny crafts belong to the category of Easter sweets made with fresh cheeses (rock) and honey. The difference in Tinos - in relation to the corresponding pies of the other islands of the Cyclades (cheese pies, honeysuckle) - is made by the airy sheet that is made with much more elegant folds (with the help of a toothpick) and the cheese that is flavored with mastic , cinnamon and orange.
The shape we give to the sweet cheese pies (tsimpito) symbolizes the spring daisies. It is the traditional Easter sweet. According to others, the 33 folds symbolize the age of Christ on the Cross.
