Turkish Delight Rose Flavoured 17.64 oz 1.10 Ibs 500 gr Lokum

Always fresh and delicious. Fast shipping.

I’ve been watching a Netflix series called “The Yard” about this lady who got into a domestic dispute with her abusive husband, and goes to jail/prison while trying to prove she was defending herself and her daughter. It’s really good! But anyway, there’s a scene where the women prisoners are eating Turkish Delight, Rose flavor, and talking about how delicious it is, so I wanted to know what it tastes like. I found it here on Amazon and ordered it. It came today, and I love it! It’s very fresh, and was delivered very fast. I had no idea something could be good to eat that tastes like a rose, lol, but it really does taste like a rose, and, it’s delicious! It’s a very delicate flavored candy. It’s chewy and sweet, but not extremely sweet. They’re shaped like little squares and they’re covered with powdered sugar. They’re cute and pretty, lol... Some reviews I’ve read say it tastes like soap, but It doesn’t taste like soap to me. To me, it just tastes delicately sweet, with a hint of rose flavor, just like it says, chewy, fresh, and endearing. There are a lot in this box. I’m very pleased! I will order it again :)....I paid full price for this product, and was not compensated in any way for my review. I just wanted to share my experience with this product with my fellow amazon shoppers regarding my new discovery of Turkish Delight :)

The rose flavoring is pretty strong in these you'll definitely taste it on the first bite. The only real problem I have with them is that they are absolutely covered in the powered sugar the corners of the box had piles of it and it sticks to your fingers and is light enough that if you bump the box too strong you're likely to get a small cloud of it hit you.Still some of the best prepackaged turkish delight I've had though so very worth it for the price (only $10 at the time of this review).

This review is from the point of view of one who had never tasted any food with rose flavoring before - so I wouldn't know how this brand of rose-flavored candy might compare to others. Based on my limited tasting experience, I'd say that rose-flavored Turkish Delights might be an acquired taste, or a nostalgic treat for some. I was curious to try them because, as a child, I loved nibbling on rose petals in a neighbor's garden (er, that is, until the neighbor found out). I was a little disappointed that this candy did not remind me of the rose petals from childhood. Instead, it reminded me of the floral/alcohol scent from the bottom of an old perfume bottles. Meanwhile, my partner's first impression was an "antiseptic" flavor. On the other hand, I enjoyed the very soft, gummy texture - easy to chew, pleasant on the tongue, not too sticky. Unlike some other reviewers, I thought the amount of powdered sugar coating was just right, providing a burst of sweetness when you first bite down that perfectly offsets the sharper rose taste that follows. The candies grew on me after eating a couple, and I'm glad I tried them, but I can't say the rose flavor will ever be my favorite. Maybe I'll try Turkish Delights in a variety of flavors next time (including but not exclusively rose).

I just remove the power sugar coating with cold water and eat it. Don't remove it beforehand or they'll get damaged in the fridge. I also like to eat them lightly cold which is why I put them in the fridge. The powdered sugar keeps them from gluing together but it's tooo much sugar! (O_o)// You can't taste the turkish delight with it.A delicious treat without that powdered sugar though.***It will make a huge powdery sugar mess when you open it so do it over a sink. Save yourself the hassle.

I wanted to like this so badly. I wish I had gotten a different flavor. It tasted like I was eating soap :(

The best Turkish delight. Beautiful.

My family loves rose flavored Turkish delight. Some brands have been disappointing but this one is very good. Will buy again.
