They are very easy to prepare, bake quickly, and look very elegant. Kalli cookies can be made as a dessert for a family dinner. They won’t disappoint you at a festive table either; just arrange them beautifully, like a bouquet.

2. Preheat the oven to 170 °C. Let the baking tray or sheet you will use for the cookies sit in the oven until it becomes hot. Grease the sheet with butter and, using a tablespoon, place the cookies on it for a few minutes. Do not place all the cookies at once, otherwise you won’t be able to shape them. Shape them while they are hot. As soon as the edges begin to turn golden, the cookies are ready. Quickly remove them with a spatula. Place a “stamen” in the middle of the cookie and pinch the bottom of the cookie. At the same time, place no more than 6–7 cookies on the sheet.

3. To make the “pestik,” do the following. Dissolve half a cup of sugar in a glass of water. Put it on the heat. Boil the orange peel in this syrup. From time to time pierce the peel with a knife. If the peel has become soft, it’s ready. Cool the peel and cut it into matchsticks.
