The handmade art lies in the fountain of our production process. After all, the traditional way of manufacturing products is the key characteristic of the Papaspirou philosophy.

We do not use preservatives or additives and it is our strong belief that exquisite taste and culinary superiority is only achieved by using the best ingredients. That is why we choose, mainly, fine Greek raw materials: eggs, sugar and honey, fresh fruits and cereal, vegetables and meat.

This way we support the Greek domestic production and offer our customers nothing but the best.

The Papaspirou products are certified with ISO 22000: 2018 and HACCP.
