it originated in Ireland. people seem to thing it's from Greece, turkey, etc. but it's not. it's Irish through and through
ok sorry but that up there is incorrect. it is NOT irish. its probably some ignorant irish person who THINKS she or he knows where baklava comes from but its deffinitely not from ireland. it DOES originate from Turkey. Why? well because look at the stem of the word: "bak" the stem is original Turkish. also there is strong evidence that it comes from Turkey, wiki says so and yes it is updated by many ppl with their own opinions but this answer is correct because wikipedia is monitored at all tmes making sure information that is put up in the website is correct. therefor my explination is right(:

Where does baklava come from?
The origin of Baklava is Turkey. There is strong evidence that it is of Central Asian Turkic origin, with its current form being developed in the imperial kitchens of the Topkapı Palace in the Ottoman Empire. Layered breads used to be created by ancient Turkic peoples in Central Asia, and thin phyllo dough as used today was developed in the kitchens of the Topkapı Palace. Indeed, the Ottoman Sultan used to present trays of baklava to the Janissaries every 15th of the month of Ramadan in a ceremonial procession called the Baklava Alayı. The word baklava also entered English from Turkish; the Arabic name is doubtless a borrowing from Turkish.
