Turkish delicacies are some of the most sophisticated sweets in the world, first invented by confectioners in Anatolia in the 14th century. It was in the 18th century that Europe was introduced to Turkish delicacies by travellers who brought them back with them from their distant travels. A sweetened mixture of exquisite nuts, delicate pistachios and fruity hazelnuts, they became the favourite confection of kings and sultans. Selamlique offers luxurious and unusual flavors of Turkish Delight, such as authentic almond Turkish Delight covered in pomegranate, rose, orange or mastic-flavored white chocolate and sprinkled with gold dust.
