    Yes, we have one of those called 'The nut shack' they also sell it in little gift boxes, ideal for presents and not too expensive!

    My OH came home with chocolate covered turkish delight, oh well. It was nice. But i've told him to have a look in M+S for me.

    Thanks again for the replies,

    I would recomend buying from a turkish/greek continetal shop if you have any where you are. Majority of town centres will have one or the other and this is the best place to buy them from or if you know of anyone going abroad on holiday to Cyprus,Greece or any med country ask them to bring you a box back.

    I don't think my OH would have time in his lunch break to hunt down special shops, which is why M+S sounded a good place to look as he can nip in for me. Otherwise i'll have to wait untill i take a trip myself and have a look. Im feeling quite crap at mo, which is why i havent been going out much. (early pregnancy sicky feeling).

  • I don't know where you are, but I know in Inverness we have a small candy store which has it. It might be worth trying the small retailers, they sometimes have the unusual. Altho, the small store had it in large bars, and it wouldn't keep as long as the indivisually wrapped candy does.

    What do you look for when buying your turkish delight, obviously taste, however it should also be authentic, meaning from Turkey. The best Turkish delight currently sold in london is in borough market, having a range of 20+ flavours of real hand made turkish delight, which is also geletine and glucose free. Honestly i dont see why you would buy it from anywhere else... Apolagies for the miss spelling of your name :)
