ZaitouneTurkish Delight Mix - 9 oz | Luxury Coatings of Pomegranate, Pistachio, Coconut, Kataifi & Rose | Authentic Lokum Sweet Assortment in a Beautiful Gift Tin | Handmade & Individually Wrapped

These little Turkish delights are both delicious and elegant. My treat time has been elevated to a full sensory experience., especially with the rose rolled variety. Fabulous product!

I only know of Turkish Delight from the Chronicles of Narnia (some of you do too!) I have always wondered what was so good about them, so by chance I came across these and gave them a try.They are good, pretty, colorful and tasty. They are not "creamy, light and soft to the very center" as they were described in the book, more of a jelly-candy with tiny nuts and bits inside and out. The rose petals aren't terribly good, I would rather smell and plant roses. The pistachio flavor was faint, as were all but the coconut and pomegranate. (For the record, coconut is not my favorite flavor in general, but these weren't bad.) The pomegranate was a bit tart, and pretty good as well. The others... I closed my eyes and imagined what they tasted like more than actually tasting them.And yet, I am not disappointed in my first try of Turkish Delight. It would be a thoughtful gift for people who grew up with them.They are not at all what I expected, which led me to find something more substantial, but that's another story. Those haven't arrived yet...

Taste is really good and the quality of the ingredients are very good too. The smell is telling you it is fresh. The value of money is very satisfying. Not dry and the size is also good.

Product was 2 months from expiration date but tasted expired already. Delights were not edible and product is not eligible for return. Do not buy unless you only want tin container and are ok with throwing out candies. Turkish delights were dried out, hard to chew, and dusty tasting.

The product came today and it is good. I will give this item to others as gifts. Nicely packaged. Variety of flavors. Like the pomegranate best, and the rose second best.

Its like a natural fruit roll up. Many people would love this. It is not my cup of tea. I prefer chocolate things. This is chewy and tart.

total wonderful

I liked this because it wasn't exceedingly, cloyingly sweet. EACH piece is separately wrapped in a plastic wrapper, easy to remove, which is super sanitary for sharing and keeps it from getting stale. I was surprised by the variety in the box -- surprises of crunch, other pieces softer with pistachio, real tender dried pomegranate pieces, and a couple with tiny dried rose petal pieces coating it. The lower sweetness level seems to let the flavors through, lots of fruitiness in there. I was pleased. It was a little on the slightly pricey side, but less cost that some others. I'd say it's worth it for a special something to keep on your coffee table to serve friends who might like a little bite of something without creating any mess, or to give as a gift. I felt this was a reasonably clean-food treat, an international delight.
