Address

32 Rue Bab Agnaou, Medina

A few steps south of Jemaa el-Fnaa on Rue Bab Agnaou, a shop with glass counters stacked with Moroccan sweets. Pick crescent-shaped almond 'gazelle horns', flower-shaped chebakia glazed in honey and sesame, and crumbly ghriba, all sold by weight. There's an air-conditioned tea room at the back for escaping the midday heat. Reviews are mixed, so expect a good neighbourhood bakery, not a temple.
