Turkish Delight Pistachio

Are there any more evocative words in the English language than Turkish delight? Full of Eastern promise and lightly dusted with Narnian magic. 
Turkish delight or lokum is a family of confections based on a gel of starch and sugar. Premium varieties consist largely of chopped dates, pistachios, and hazelnuts or walnuts bound by the gel; traditional varieties are often flavored with rosewater, mastic, Bergamot orange, or lemon.
