Turkish Chocolate Thins (Pack of 3)

Product Information

Anyhow – beyond the sleuthing, I was itching to try these and see if they are as good as some of the other TD’s I’ve sampled before. Or perhaps, just see how they compare to a Fry’s (Cadbury).

Before you begin, it's important to prepare your tin ahead of time. Spray the tin with some cooking oil, then line it with 2 sheets of plastic cling wrap. Press it into the pan. Spray the tin one more time. Set aside. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 1/2 cups of water, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and sugar, stirring occasionally. Once boiled, reduce heat to low and continue stirring every few minutes. If you've never tried this sweet and colorful gel treat, it's about time you did. Not only boasting a great name for a delicious dessert, Turkish Delights have the added prestige of being the original inspiration for the jelly bean. While it's true that they're delicious, however, is Turkish Delight vegan? The good news is that there are just a few things to watch out for if you want to be sure that it's a cruelty-free treat. What's in Turkish Delight? Once you’re happy with the flavour, add a few drops of the red food colouring and mix well and add more colouring until you’re happy with the shade of pink you’ve got. Make sure your buttercream is well combined and smooth.

Pour mixture into the prepared tin. Leave out to cool and set over the next few hours or overnight. While the Mixture is Setting... Meanwhile, in a large pot over medium heat, blend together the remaining 2 cups of water, 1 cup of corn flour, and a teaspoon of cream of tartar. An immersion blender works really well for this. Blend until you leave a trail in the mix, then take it off the stove. These smelled sweet. And taste of nothing much apart from sweet. That big fat whiff of rosewater – I think that was the flavour escaping, and once gone there was none left. Oldest son does not like Turkish Delight – on the grounds there is no flavour I got him to try one of these. His verdict: Meh. The Lady of the House says: Way too sweet. No flavour.

As I was passing through my local Foodland the other day, these caught my eye. Partly because I saw my own name (admittedly, with the alternate spelling, but nevertheless) – and partly because of the magic words: “ Turkish Delight”. Arrange the Turkish Delight thins and pieces on top of the cake in whatever way you think looks good. I did haphazard rows of thins with the pieces dotted about.Note: The image and summary details have been prepared for illustration and information purposes only.

No surpise the Turkish Delight was my favourite one of all. Even today when we get a box of chocolates, I claim the Turkish delight as my own. I could not eat any more than one or two of them at once . . . they are too sweet, but boy oh boy do I enjoy those one or two. Now for the slightly time consuming bit; using a palette knife spread the rose buttercream around the sides of the cake. I found it easier to plaster on more buttercream than I needed and then smooth it off. It doesn’t have to be a perfect finish, but cover it as best you can, this is easier if your buttercream is soft. If if’s too hard, give it another beating.Cover the top of that sponge layer with a thin spread of buttercream and put your second sponge on top of that. Repeat the process with the third sponge layer. Some bakers will also use a milk mixture that you have to watch out for. An inquiry into whether they use honey to sweeten the treat is also important if you want your delight to be truly vegan. However, the best Turkish Delight is made right in your kitchen where it is guaranteed to be vegan! How to Make Your Own Vegan Turkish Delight

It’s a stunning looking (and tasting) cake. It looks fancier and harder to bake than it really is. If you can bake a sponge cake and mix up some buttercream, then you’ve got all the skills needed to make this cake. Showstopping Turkish Delight Cake

I had made brownies in the past filling them with a layer of minty After Eights. Oh my but they were scrummy . . . the centre of the brownies all fudgy and mint flavoured . . . impossible to put down. Imagine the same thing . . . but with a moreishly scrummy centre of Turkish Delight. Prehaet the oven to 180*C/350*F/Gas mark 4. Butter a 12 by 8 inch brownie pan and line with parchment paper. Butter again. Set aside. I love Turkish Delight in all its forms; from the chocolate covered Fry’s version, to the sugar dusted boxes of these jellied fancies you get at Christmas. During my weekly shop I spotted a box of Turkish Delight thins from Morrison’s and I knew exactly what I’d do with them. My Turkish Delight Cake was born! While your sponge cakes are cooling, sift your icing sugar and beat together with the softened butter. Add your drops of rose extract, beating thoroughly and tasting as you go. You can always add more, but you can’t take it away!
