Sfințișori or Moldavian martyrs is a traditional dessert pastry coated in nuts and honey. The pastry is soft and fluffy on the interior, while the exterior is crispy, crunchy, and sticky. It is made in the form of figure eight, representing the human body and referring to the 8th of March, the day before an Orthodox holiday celebrating the Forty Martyrs, when the dessert is traditionally prepared. There is also a Dobrogea regional version of sfințișori where the pastries are smaller and topped with walnuts and cinnamon.
