(More customer reviews)I have not yet received my order but have eaten these delicious treats. So, I am sure that they will be enjoyable. However, the shipping fee of $11.99 for this small order is outrageous and I know that Amazon has negotiated very good rates with their selected courier carrier and I cannot believe that the shipping and handling fee is as high as the cost that is being passed on to your customers. This fee seems to be a new source of revenue for on-line companies...I wanted four boxes of these sweets and chose not to purchase this number since the S & H fee was even more expensive.

The story of the birth of Turkish Delight, begins in the late 1700s, when Ali Muhiddin Haci Bekir, a confectioner to the imperial court in Istanbul, tried to create a soft candy for the sultan. The sultan complained that the hard candy would crack his teeth. The confectioner mixed water, sugar corn starch, cream of tartar, and rosewater. He cooked it up, poured the mixture into a flat pan coated in almond oil, and let it cool. He then sprinkled it with powdered sugar, and cut it into bite size pieces. The sultan was pleased, and Turkish Delight was born.
