"Güllaç is mentioned by Charles Perry (1994) as being the first version of baklava (he calls it proto-baklava). The similarities among the two desserts are many, such as the use of thin layers of dough and nuts in between. However, güllaç dough is prepared with corn starch and wheat flour. Güllaç contains walnuts between the layers that are put in milk."
