I’m convinced that the difference between good Turkish delight and a bad one must be a hell of a gulf. Aside from the Cadbury stuff I’ve only had really good Turkish delight, and it’s a nice light treat. The mrs hadn’t had the good stuff before, and swore she hated it before she tried it.

the Cadbury stuff

I’d say that’s more “inspired by” and not actual turkish delight

Source: I’m turkish, and sometimes a delight. Usually not.

Yeah it’s chocolate with a mildly rose inspired nougat, not their worst but definitely not good.

There was a Turkish Bakery I used to go to and let me say I understand Edmund 100%.

I actually had some made by a restaurant chef and that was lovely. But the stuff in the corner store when I was reading the Narnia books was an utter horror.
