Oman, the Guest of Honour at the 45th Sharjah International Book Fair in 2026, is introducing visitors to the art of making Omani halwa through a live demonstration showcasing its ingredients, preparation stages and the skills passed down through generations. The process takes around three hours of stirring and carefully adjusting the texture. Ingredients include ghee, saffron, cardamom, rosewater and nuts, while the varieties and colours differ across the Sultanate’s wilayats. The showcase highlights halwa’s place in Omani hospitality and celebrations, where it is often served with coffee. Its maker, Mohammed Al Amri, also shares his family’s craft, passed down for more than two centuries.
