Ancient Rome used rose water for its antiseptic and antibacterial properties and in the middle ages, rose water was used to beat stress and depression.
The scent of our Turkish Delight, made with Real Rose Petals and Rose Water, will magically transport you to a Summer Rose Garden!
This is our most aromatic Turkish Delight, and the scent is very strong, but exceedingly pleasant.
Turkish Delight (also known as Lokum) is a popular dessert sweet throughout Europe, especially in Greece, the Balkans, and, of course, Turkey. Its English name is no misnomer. Turks make and consume lots of Lokum; it's a popular gift and a sign of hospitality. It is a family of confections based on a combination of starch and sugar.
Premium varieties consist largely of pistachios, hazelnuts or walnuts bound by the mixture; traditional varieties are often flavoured with rosewater. The confection is often packaged and eaten in small cubes dusted with icing sugar, or powdered cream of tartar to prevent clinging. Other popular flavours include Cinnamon, Clove, Ginger, Almond & Coconut, Strawberry, Mint, and of course, Original.
There’s still a lot of people who only know of Turkish Delight as the powdery white sweet used by the White Witch to entice Edmund in The Chronicles of Narnia. However, the confection has a long history and is one of Turkey’s most popular exports.
Our customers regularly come back to order another box, and it's no surprise why. Turkish Delight is one of the oldest sweets in the world, going back almost 500 years and has remained unchanged since its creation. When you taste our Turkish Delight, you are tasting recipes that have been tried and proven many times before.
Almonds and coconut are widely used in desserts, baking, and cereals — and they make a wonderful pairing in confectionery too. From pralines to chocolate bars, this classic combination brings richness, texture, and subtle sweetness.
Our Almond & Coconut Turkish Delight adds a unique twist by combining both ingredients into a soft, flavourful piece — and unlike our other varieties, this one comes in a distinctive circular shape. The result is a delightful variation that stands out in both taste and appearance.

Our Lemon Turkish Delight is consistently one of our most frequently ordered flavours. Handmade in small batches, each piece may vary slightly in flavour strength, as individual confectioners adjust the lemon content by hand. This natural variation brings a lovely character to each batch — but the result is always refreshing, fragrant, and perfectly zesty.
Bright and clean on the palate, lemon is a popular choice for those who enjoy a citrus twist without overwhelming sweetness.

Strawberries are loved the world over for their bright red colour, sweetness, and distinctive aroma. From strawberries and cream to cheesecakes, ice cream, and yoghurt, they’re a familiar favourite in countless desserts and treats.
Our Strawberry Turkish Delight captures that classic flavour in a soft, fragrant sweet. While it’s not a traditional variety in Turkey, it has become one of the most popular flavours in the Western world — especially among younger customers and those new to Lokum.

With its sweet, woody warmth and hint of citrus, cinnamon delivers a flavour unlike any other — bold, aromatic, and deeply comforting. Often compared to cloves for its spicy punch, cinnamon is used across the world in apple tarts, festive baking, and even modern cocktails.
Our Cinnamon Turkish Delight uses real ground cinnamon to create a rich, gently spiced treat that’s especially popular in the colder months. It’s a flavour strongly associated with Christmas, but loved year-round for its familiar, nostalgic charm.

Our Hazelnut Turkish Delight is a treat that truly lets the flavour of the nut shine. Unlike many sweets that simply include chopped nuts or bury them in chocolate, this delight allows the natural richness of whole hazelnuts to come through in every bite.
While some chocolate bars promise “a whole hazelnut in every piece,” this is something different entirely — a soft, traditional Turkish Delight that enhances rather than masks the nut’s smooth, earthy flavour.

Our Original Turkish Delight is the closest you’ll get to how the very first Lokum was made — soft, delicately sweet, and completely unflavoured.
Many assume rose was the original flavour, but that’s not the case. Rose became the most popular export from Turkey, especially as rose-flavoured chocolate bars rose in popularity — reinforcing the misconception. This version is perfect for those wanting to experience Turkish Delight in its most authentic form.

Our Ginger Turkish Delight is consistently one of our most popular choices — favoured by regular customers for its bold, warming flavour. Handmade in small batches, no two pieces are quite the same, as each confectioner may vary the amount of ground ginger slightly. That small variation brings a lovely natural character to each batch, but the result is always delicious, gently spiced, and pleasantly warming.

Clove has a warm, aromatic flavour all of its own — rich, earthy, and deeply nostalgic. Often associated with Christmas spices, it's commonly used in festive baking, mulled wine, and even whisky, especially during the colder months. Our Clove Turkish Delight captures that cosy, spiced character in a soft, traditional sweet that’s perfect for winter gifting or simply enjoying with a hot drink by the fire.

Our Rose Turkish Delight is easily our most popular variety — and for good reason. Handmade in small batches, no two pieces are ever quite the same. Each confectioner adds a slightly different amount of crushed rose petals, giving every batch its own subtle character — but the result is always beautifully fragrant and irresistibly soft.

Mint is used all over the world in sweets and baking — known for its zingy flavour and breath-freshening qualities. Our Mint Turkish Delight is especially popular with returning customers, many of whom fill their custom boxes almost entirely with this refreshing favourite.
