Mehmet Efendi 1953 takes its name from our founder’s birth year. Born in Gaziantep in 1953, he grew up among master baklava makers, the aroma of warm syrup and the delicate craft of rolling fine pastry. He later refined his skills in Istanbul, working with renowned artisans before establishing his own bakery built on quality, elegance and originality.

Today, Mehmet Efendi 1953 brings together the heritage of Gaziantep’s fine sweet tradition, the refinement of Istanbul and the contemporary vision of London. Every baklava, patisserie, breakfast selection and gift box reflects this journey, a signature where timeless craftsmanship meets modern design
