Celebrate Romanian tradition with Baneasa Mucenici Pasta — an iconic specialty pasta deeply rooted in Romanian Orthodox culture. Crafted in the distinctive figure-eight shape representing the martyred saints (Sfinții 40 de Mucenici), this authentic 200g pasta is the key ingredient in one of Romania’s most beloved seasonal dishes, traditionally prepared on March 9th to mark the Feast of the Forty Martyrs.
Made by Baneasa, one of Romania’s most trusted food brands, this pasta is produced using a traditional recipe that preserves the authentic texture and shape essential to a proper Mucenici dish. The delicate figure-eight pasta is cooked in sweetened water and served as a warm dessert soup, enriched with crushed walnuts, ground cinnamon, and a generous drizzle of honey — a combination of flavors that is unmistakably Romanian.
Beyond the traditional recipe, Baneasa Mucenici Pasta can also be used creatively in other sweet pasta preparations, making it a unique and versatile addition to any Eastern European pantry. Whether you’re keeping a cherished family tradition alive, sharing Romanian culture with friends, or simply exploring the rich world of Eastern European cuisine, this pasta delivers an irreplaceable taste of home.
