International halva & tahini store
Sesames is a premium halva and tahini brand from the Middle East, operating from the Italian market and selling to private customers and wholesalers across Europe. The brand offered a wide range of halva in unique flavors, from pistachio and pecan to cinnamon and hazelnut, alongside raw tahini and accompanying products. They needed a new, modern, multilingual online store that would reflect the premium quality of the products.
We built a multilingual online store selling Israeli halva to customers in Italy and Europe, with appetite-stirring design.
The challenge
Sesames's existing site was visually cluttered and disorganized, navigation was cumbersome, products were hard to find, and the design didn't reflect the brand's uniqueness. The customers, most of whom are from Italy and Europe, needed a purchase experience in two languages, English and Italian.
The brand wanted a site that would feel like the halva itself, warm, inviting, premium. A store that would make customers feel the flavors before they even order.
What we built
We built the store on Elementor, with custom WooCommerce that handles the unique logic of halva (sale by weight, custom bundles, choosing the number of slices). The design uses warm colors, high-quality product images and a Mediterranean atmosphere that invites browsing and ordering.
The site supports two languages (English and Italian) with seamless language switching, separate URL structure per language, and culturally-adapted content per audience. The store is fully responsive, adapted to every screen from mobile to desktop, and lets the team update products and content themselves.
