Effects on Your Baking

Rose water has a sweeter, more perfumed floral character compared to orange blossom water's lighter, citrusy-floral notes. In baklava, ma'amoul, and knafeh, either floral water works beautifully. The dish will taste different but equally authentic — it's a matter of regional preference.
