Petek Pastanesi's Mavişehir shop on Caher Dudayev Bulvarı in Karşıyaka, İzmir — the second İzmir counter of a family confectioner running since 1942.
Mavişehir sits at the western end of Karşıyaka, on the bay side of İzmir, laid out in wide boulevards and housing blocks. Caher Dudayev Bulvarı is one of its main axes, and Petek Pastanesi's shop there is at number 30. The company's other İzmir shop is in Bayraklı and is kept as a separate record.
The house dates itself to 1942 and describes itself as a family business. Its branches page lists ten shops: six in Hatay province on the Mediterranean coast, two in İzmir, and one each in Trabzon and Osmaniye.
Its published catalogue is arranged by category: ezme (ground nut-and-sugar pastes), sugar-free sweets, chocolate, künefe and kadayıf — shredded-pastry desserts soaked in syrup — baklava, Turkish delight and nuts, sweet and savoury specialities, regional products and gift boxes. Two traditions share the counter: the syrup-soaked end of Turkish confectionery on one side, chocolate and patisserie on the other. These items are taken from the company's published catalogue; which of them is stocked at this particular shop is not stated separately, and neither opening hours nor prices appear on the site.
