Soutzoukloukoum is a traditional sweet produced in Komotini. It is distinguished by its softness and sweet taste, while it exudes a characteristic aroma. Walnuts are added to the sweet, along with a coating of Aegina pistachios.

The preparation process includes the following features:

• Whole walnuts are threaded one by one onto a string.
• The mixture is ground with water and sugar.
• The strings with the walnuts are dipped into a cauldron and hung to cool and set the mixture.
• The loukoumi acquires a caramelized, amber color and is sprinkled with Aegina pistachios.
