About Lokoum
Lokoum, also known as Turkish delight, is a chewy, sweet confection originating from Turkey and enjoyed across the Middle East and the Mediterranean. Traditionally, it is made from sugar, water, and starch, sometimes flavored with rosewater, citrus, or mastic, and often dusted with powdered sugar or desiccated coconut. Certain varieties may include nuts like pistachios, hazelnuts, or walnuts for added texture and richness. While Lokoum is fat-free and provides quick energy due to its high sugar content, it lacks significant nutritional benefits such as fiber, protein, or essential vitamins and minerals. Its calorie density and sugar levels make it a treat best enjoyed in moderation, as excessive consumption can contribute to weight gain or other health concerns. However, its small serving sizes and indulgent flavors make it a popular occasional sweet across different cultures.
