In Doy’s garden
Log it in Doydum and a row of pumpkins sprouts in today’s bed in front of Doy’s house.
Turkish delight, or lokum, is a soft, chewy sweet of sugar and starch, flavoured with rosewater, lemon, mastic or nuts and dusted with powdered sugar. It is offered to guests with Turkish coffee and handed round at holidays.
Sizes range from tiny cubes to big nutty bars, so count the pieces and weigh one if you can.
