When founder, Najwa was a little girl, growing up in a mixed Bengali-Moroccan household, Dalchini, the Bengali word for “cinnamon”, was shortened to just dalci, and came to mean that special little home cooked treat that perked you up and made you feel whole again. Coming home after a long day to a little dalci meant a return to where you are loved and feel grounded. dalci was created in that spirit and carries it forward today, bringing that sweet little piece of Najwa’s family to the rest of the world as a way of saying, let’s all take a load off, have a little treat, and revel in being human for a moment.
