Trader Joe's is consistently offering innovative products at low prices and one of the newest items on its shelves is kunefe—a traditional Middle Eastern dessert. The dessert is described as a "noodle-like pastry" that's made up of kataifi (shredded phyllo dough) that's soaked in a floral syrup, topped with pistachios and layered with cheese. Due to the many components and textures of the dessert, it can be a difficult creation to perfect, which is why Trader Joe's frozen version of the product will catch the eyes of many. Notably, the dessert is picking up popularity on social media, especially due to the fact that it provides a long cheese pull.
Trader Joe's kunefe is packaged with outer crusts, two blends of cheese, ground pistachio garnishes and a packet of syrup for soaking the baked creation.
