I like Turkish twisted baklava... Maybe someone who knows Near East food better can chime in but I've found there's a huge difference in texture & "heaviness" of baklava among Greek, Turks, Armenians & Lebanese. Maybe the filo dough is different?

Probably the best American dessert, unless your research says it was "born" somewhere else.

Is flan a Cuban dessert, too, and do countries other than Mexico make it?

If I had to add Cuban desserts, then throw in:
pasteles de guyava
pasteles de carne
