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 jellies are tangy with mellow fruit flavors—the sour cherry, strawberry, apricot and orange reminded us of high-end gummy bears or jelly beans. But their pleasant sweetness isn’t overpowering, unlike American fruit candies or sugary-sweet mass-produced versions of this Turkish classic. You’ll love sinking your teeth into their chewy, supple texture.\u003c\/p\u003e [\/description-break] \nIngredients [\/title]\n\u003cb\u003eIngredients:\u003c\/b\u003e Sugar, Cornstarch, Water, Acidity Regulator (Cream of Tartar), Fruit (%5) [Sour Cherry, Strawberry, Apricot, Candied Orange Peel (Orange Peel, Sugar)], Artificial Flavoring (Sour Cherry, Strawberry, Apricot, Orange), Artificial Colors \n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAllergens:\u003c\/b\u003e Red #40[\/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.[\/banner-text-break] ","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68126701617389,"sku":"MTC3B 6859565662265","price":11.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0842\/3964\/6957\/files\/haci-bekir-turkish-delight-assorted-fruit-flavors-hacibekir-700689_ad43f12e-d36b-4615-842e-d278f0aa7be7.jpg?v=1793446464","url":"https:\/\/milkkitchenstreet.com\/products\/haci-bekir-turkish-delight-assorted-fruit-flavors","provider":"HomeKitchen Haven","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
