The origin of turkish delight began in 1776, when there was a confectioner called Haci Bekir who has been given the title of the inventor. Haci Bekir modified a traditional sweet of the age by adding starch and sugar to make Lokum, or Turkish Delight as it is now often known. He introduced his invention to the Ottoman Palace based in Istanbul, which at the time was called Constantinople. After being a huge hit, it then made its way slowly around the palaces in Europe. So when you eat these sweets, you are very much in ancient royal company!
As with all Turkish delight from Trude it is totally vegan, gluten and GMO free with natural flavours.
