The Delightful Turkish Delight





This is definitely not your usual strawberry/lemon-flavored candy. It originated in Turkey and became more popular when Edmund, from The Chronicles of Narnia, betrayed his own siblings when Queen Jadis offered him some of these treats.


Curiosity got over me that I quickly looked for stores that sell Turkish Delight in Manila. I got this from Marks and Spencer for 350php. Quite expensive for a box of 20. Anyways, it is extremely sweet and you'd feel as if you're eating flowers when you get the pink ones. The yellow ones are lemon-flavored, which I liked more.
