Oh my there are so many varieties! different nuts, different flavorings, different colors and fruits...
My favorite was the almond ones though.
The closest I've come to finding something like it in the States is the Aplets and Cotlets confection; they are similar in texture, but the ones in Turkey had so much variety, it's hard to definitively describe Turkish Delight.

As a kid I disliked it, but it's always been one of my mom's favourites. When I was in England, they always had some available at the Kilns and I felt like I *had* to try some. That's when I discovered that while I don't like rose that much, I quite like lemon. I can tolerate rose if it's chocolate coated. I wouldn't sell my family for it, but it is quite enjoyable.

Turkish Delight is one of my favourite go-to treats, when I can get it...I wouldn't dream of trying to make it myself though.

I would not sell my family for Turkish Delight. But the Pevensies eventually forgave Edmund anyway.

I would not sell my family for it. It was good, of course; but I hope I'm not that corruptible.

Have you ever had Turkish Delight? Have you made it? How did that go? Would you sell your family for it?

Yes, I made Turkish Delight in highschool. It was awful. Just the worse. I burnt the sugar and melted a spoon in it. Don't trust a 15 year old with candy unsupervised.
And yes, I've had proper Turkish delight. I got a bag of it from a little sweets shop in Lacok England (AKA Godric's Hollow) and it was amazing. You know how some people will properly make Turkish delight and say it's a let down? Well, they haven't had good British sweet shop delight. It's good. Real good. Throw in some dark magic and a chip on my shoulder and yeah, I'd sell out my youngest brother.
The lemon is better than rose. Rose is good, but lemon is better.
I still have some in my room from Harrod's. It's good, but not as good as that tiny little shop.
