Bayco Turkish Delight

Ever since I tried the Turkish delight I had stumbled upon at a confectionery store in San Francisco, I've been obsessed with this candy. After a long search I found that Bayco Confectionery makes the best version I've tasted thus far.

Soft and not too chewy, Bayco offers the traditional flavors or rose and lemon as well as pistachio. You can also get a package of assorted fruit flavors (strawberry, lime, orange, pear, etc.). I love the rose flavored ones — they're not cloyingly sweet and the aroma is just perfect, not perfumey at all. One piece is usually enough to satisy a sweet tooth, but I find myself eating more!

Prices range $5.75-$9.50 (minimum $20). To order, go to www.turkish-delight.com.

I've only tried Turkish Delight once before, and I can't say it was my favorite thing in the world. But maybe this brand will change my opinion.

I didn't like it before either, but this version totally changed my mind!!
