Shirin [pronounced “sheereen”] in Farsi means sweet. Our pastries are less sweet and we use spices, honey, and plain yogurt to make them delicious.

Meet the Baker
Hello! My name is Valia Eskandari and I’m so glad you found us. I am Armenian and was born and raised in Iran. My family and I emigrated in 1979 right after the Iranian Revolution, lived in Barcelona, Spain for two years and in 1981, we settled in the United States. I graduated with an engineering degree, got married, and had two beautiful children.
I always had a love for baking and if I wanted to enjoy the treats of my childhood in the Portland area, I had to bake them myself.
