Three generations of pistachio sweets

Aiakeion opened in 1958 and is now run by Alexandros and Michalis, the third generation. It is on Aegina's seafront, Leoforos Dimokratias, a few steps from where the ferries dock. They work above all with the island's pistachio: spreading creams, crunchy and soft sweets, jams, roasted pistachios and vegan versions, with raw materials from Greek producers.

Why come
