Never had Turkish delight, but I'd imagine it would taste significantly different depending on the starch and if you only used starch to make it the gel or if you used gelatin too. Using unmodified corn starch to make a gel sounds like an extreme pain in the ass, though quite doable.

Real turkish delight is extremely good. There's a lot of mass produced cheap stuff that is not good.

should one go to candar for it, I've first heard of Turkish delight from an eu4 youtuber.

Lokma differs from region to region, but its always far from anyone's favourite.

I don't know man, I got a box from haci bekir in Istanbul, the flower and spice flavors especially were nuts. If I lived nearby I'd have a problem.
