Turkish Delight is also called Lokum, or in Arabic 'rāḥat al-ḥulqūm' (which means 'Throat Comfort'... apt!). It it thought to have been originally introduced to the UK by a Briton who travelled to Istanbul and became rather fond of it. It is a huge tradition all over the Middle East, and is traditionally made with a large variety of natural ingredients, from dates, to walnuts, pistachios, rosewater, orange and lemon.
It has, via Fry's Turkish Delight, made its way into the UK's sweetie hall of fame.

"It came very quickly, quicker than I expected and it was all very nicely packaged. As for the sweets themselves, my husband and children enjoyed them very much, some didn't even last a day."
