Hazelnut canpare is a Turkish baked sweet made from a hazelnut-containing dough and soaked in syrup. It has a cookie-like shape with a tender, moist texture once the syrup has been absorbed.
Hazelnut canpare tastes buttery and nutty, with sweetness from the syrup. The hazelnuts add a roasted, slightly earthy flavor that distinguishes it from plainer syrup-soaked pastries.
Hazelnut canpare includes hazelnuts in its dough or topping, while sekerpare is commonly made without them. Both are baked and soaked in syrup, though recipes vary and the names may be used differently by individual cooks.
To make hazelnut canpare, mix hazelnuts into a rich dough, shape it into small pieces, and bake until golden. Pour syrup over the baked pastries so they can absorb it and become tender.
Hazelnut canpare may not absorb syrup well if the syrup is too thick or the pastry and syrup are at similar temperatures. A common approach is to pour cooled syrup over freshly baked, hot pastries.
Hazelnut canpare is usually served at room temperature after it has absorbed the syrup. Turkish coffee or unsweetened tea makes a good accompaniment, while extra chopped hazelnuts add crunch.
Store hazelnut canpare in a covered container in a cool, dry place. Refrigeration can make the syrup-soaked pastry firmer, while a warm room can affect its freshness.
Yes, hazelnut canpare can be frozen, although thawing may slightly change its syrupy texture. Freeze the pieces in an airtight container and thaw them slowly in the refrigerator before serving.
Yes, you can make hazelnut canpare less sweet by using a more modest amount of syrup or letting the pastries drain after soaking. Cutting back too much can leave them drier than the traditional version.
Yes, walnuts or almonds can replace hazelnuts in hazelnut canpare, but the flavor and texture will change. Anyone avoiding hazelnuts because of an allergy should confirm that the substitute is safe for them.

Hazelnut canpare is a traditional Turkish syrup-soaked cookie, baked until lightly golden and finished with hazelnut. Once the syrup has soaked in, the outside is tender and the centre soft, with a buttery sweetness balanced by the nut’s toasted flavour. Recipes vary, but it is commonly served as a small, rich dessert rather than an everyday biscuit.
In Turkey, it is a familiar choice from pastry shops and for serving guests, often alongside tea or Turkish coffee. Its combination of syrup, flour and fat makes it energy-dense; a modest piece is satisfying. If you prefer a lighter dessert, share one or serve it with unsweetened tea.
