Where to buy? Turkish delight (not covered in chocolate)

Options
Hi :o Does anyone know where I can buy Turkish delight from? Not cadbury stuff with chocolate on but the rose and lemon kind? I had some over xmas from asda and tesco, but can't find any now.

I don't particularly want to order online as the postage costs put me off....

So any idea's?

Thank you :o

keely.

    My favourite rose and lemon turkish delight is from the Pick n Mix sweets in Woolies, they're individually wrapped so they keep nice and fresh.

    Be careful when you open the wrappers, I always end up covered in the sugar :o

    some Cypriot shops do cyprus delight the same as turkish
  • It could be worth trying Thorntons, they sell bars covered in chocolate but they also sell boxes of rose and lemon turkish delight without chocolate, just checked their website and they are reduced as well - http://www.thorntons.co.uk/ThorntonsSite/product/Clearance/4987.htm - could be worth a checking in the shops to see if they are reduced in store as well
