While variations on the treat exist which replace the carrot with fig or date purée, the name is nonetheless derived from the word "jazriyya", which is Arabic for "with carrot". In Latakia, Syria, jazariyya is made by caramelizing carrots, then pressing them and garnishing them with coconuts, sometimes pumpkins are added in combination with or in place of the carrots.
