We found these in Istanbul, and they’re the most authentic version of traditional Turkish lokum we’ve been able to get in the States. The confection has a pleasant sweetness from dates and sugar that doesn’t overpower—unlike some sugary-sweet, mass-produced versions of this classic Turkish treat. Sink your teeth into its chewy, supple texture—hazelnuts and pistachios add a light crunchiness and clean, simple flavor. \u003c\/p\u003e [\/description-break] \nIngredients [\/title]\n\u003cb\u003eIngredients:\u003c\/b\u003e Sugar, Corn Starch, Water, Cream of Tartar, Hazelnut, Pistachio, Dates \n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAllergens:\u003c\/b\u003e Tree Nuts[\/accordion] Specifications [\/title]\n\u003cb\u003eNet Weight:\u003c\/b\u003e 325 grams \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003ePlace of Origin:\u003c\/b\u003e Turkey [\/accordions-break] \nConfectioner in Chief.[\/banner_heading] \nWhen Haci Bekir Effendi, founder of Haci Bekir, set up shop in Istanbul, he was relying on traditional sweeteners and ingredients for his Turkish delight. However, with the rise of refined sugar and cornstarch—a then experimental product from a German scientist—he modified the recipe for Turkish delight, developing the classic sweet flavor and jelly texture known and loved today. This secret recipe grew so popular and beloved that Sultan Mahmud II, the ruler of the Ottoman Empire, appointed Bekir Effendi chief confectioner to the palace.
