Vasiliki’s mother-in-law taught her how to make galatopita when she came to Australia, as a young bride. Vasiliki has made it countless times since then and it is now one of her family’s all-time favourite desserts, especially her granddaughter’s (who shares her name with her yiayia). In fact, young Vasiliki frequently chooses it for her birthday cake… how cool is that?!
Wishing you kali epitichia – best success – in making this dessert and hoping that it becomes one of your signature desserts and birthday cakes too! less
