Turkish delight

Turkish delight, also called lokum or loqum, is a family of confections made from a gel of starch and sugar. Premium versions include chopped dates, pistachios, hazelnuts or walnuts bound by the gel, while traditional versions are often flavored with rosewater, mastic gum, bergamot orange or lemon, and other common flavors include cinnamon and mint. The confection is typically packaged in small cubes dusted with icing sugar, copra or powdered cream of tartar to keep the pieces from sticking together.
