During Ramadan, it’s not unusual to put on a few extra pounds thanks to the amount of food we eat at all our gatherings. It can be hard to put down that last bite of dessert, especially when there are so many delicious dishes. As a result, we made plans to celebrate Eid in a way that won’t compromise our health. So, we found six different places where you can purchase healthy kahk and other desserts just in time for Eid.

Diet House is letting you enjoy the holidays guilt-free with healthier, lower-calorie ingredients in its products. They have baked cookies for sale at EGP 70 per quarter kilo, cookies for purchase at EGP 65 per quarter kilo, biscuits for sale at EGP 70 per quarter kilo, and kahk for sale at EGP 70 per quarter kilo.
