This quick and easy Turkish Delight Rocky Road is a delicious chocolate treat and also a great gift for friends.
I love making Rocky Road and this Turkish Delight version is so tasty!The combination of almonds, Turkish Delight, marshmallows and chocolate is such a hit.
For this recipe I used both milk and dark chocolate because I like the flavour and balance of the two together, but you can use what ever chocolate is your favourite.
Rocky road is so versatile! You can use whatever ingredients you have on hand: nuts, dried fruit and even chocolate bars like Turkish Delight. Check out my caramilk or white chocolate and pistachio versions.
I like to cut the Turkish Delight into large slices so that when you cut up the Rocky Road (once it has set), you can still see the nice dark red pieces inside.
How to make turkish delight rocky road:
This recipe is so easy to make, first of all melt the chocolate in a glass bowl in the microwave. It takes around 2 minutes but keep checking on it so it doesn't burn. Once it is melted stir together and let it cool a little bit.
Add the chopped roasted almonds, Turkish Delight and marshmallows to the melted chocolate and stir together. Pour into a lined baking tray and chill in the fridge until set. This takes about an hour.
Once set cut into pieces and store in an airtight container in the fridge.
This recipe is a great one to get the kids involved by stirring it all together and adding ingredients into the bowl. It’s also one of my favourite recipes to make because it’s so tasty licking the bowl and spoon afterwards.
Common questions about this recipe:

Thank you so much, Deborah. The Turkish delight version is one of my favourites too!
The texture is somewhat between a homemade marshmallow and soft jelly. Enjoy and store: Turkish delight keeps well stored in a dry place for up to 1 month. Layer the candy between sheets of parchment in an airtight container on your countertop in a cool, dry place away from light and heat.
Rocky Road is best kept in the fridge but you can enjoy it at room temperature. Store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 weeks or at room temperature for 1-2 weeks. It can also be frozen, just let it come up to room temperature before eating.
Turkish delight or lokum (/lɔ.kʊm/) is a family of confections based on a gel of starch and sugar. Premium varieties consist largely of chopped dates, pistachios, hazelnuts or walnuts bound by the gel; traditional varieties are often flavored with rosewater, mastic gum, bergamot orange, or lemon.
The candy should be somewhat hard after chilling, but will soften as it sits at room temperature. Move the coated Turkish Delight to an airtight container, and keep it at room temperature for up to 4 weeks. I hope your family enjoys the sweet, fruity, classic candies as much as we do!
No matter which way you look at it, Turkish delight isn't going to be the healthiest of foods - after all, it's primarily sugar! There's a reason why the Turkish name for Turkish delight is lokum, which can be translated to a morsel of a mouthful.
Halal sweets are made without using ingredients that are not permitted in Islam. This includes things like alcohol, gelatin, and certain types of flavouring. While many different halal sweets are available, some of the most popular include Turkish delight, kunafa and halva.
Remove the Rocky Road from the fridge at least 30 minutes before slicing - this will help it to stop cracking. Use a large sharp knife to cut the Rocky Road (or check out my top tips for cutting rocky road here). Store the Rocky Road in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 month.
So remember, chunks not crumbs! Be careful heating your chocolate – If you find that your rocky road is a bit greasy or the chocolate is feels grainy the the chocolate has possibly seized; this usually occurs when the chocolate is overheated.
Haci Bekir is a legendary name in the world of Turkish delight, credited with popularizing this delectable confection. Founded in 1777, Haci Bekir has been dedicated to producing high-quality, authentic Turkish delights for centuries.
I've found that the Turkish delight made with cornstarch is more likely to “sweat” and become soggy with time while the one made with rice flour gets dry with time.
Turkish Delight, or lokum, is a sweet treat that has been enjoyed for centuries. It has a unique texture that's both soft and chewy, and it's available in a variety of flavours. In this post we're going to explore the history, ingredients, cultural significance, and health benefits of this beloved candy.
Excessive consumption may have a laxative effect. It is recommended not to exceed 3-4 pieces (35-40g). Sweeteners (maltitol syrup, isomalt), cornstarch, chicory root fibre, water, natural rose flavour, acidity regulator (citric acid), natural food colour (anthocyanin).
Turkish Delight, also known as Lokum, is a popular confectionery originating from Turkey. In simple words, it is a jelly-like soft nougat bar mainly made from starch and sugar and typically flavoured with rosewater, lemon, or other fruit flavours.
According to an extensive investigation by Gizmodo, Turkish Delight is the healthiest chocolate, with just 363 calories per 100g. Obviously, nobody is eating chocolate for the health benefits, but this means you can eat way more without massively exceeding your daily intake.
Although it's important to keep your Turkish delight cool, don't store it in the fridge. Your refrigerator will draw more moisture out of your Turkish delight, causing it to sweat even after it has stabilized at room temperature. Turkish delight is best stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
Because Turkish delight is made from sugar and then dusted in extra sugar, it keeps for up to three months. Layer it between sheets of baking paper sprinkled with more icing sugar and store in a cool dark place - not the fridge, though, as the moisture in the fridge will make the Turkish delight sweat and break down.
Generally, Turkish Delight can last for up to three months if stored properly. If you purchase Turkish Delight from us it's best to consume it within a month or two of purchase. The fresher it is, the better it will taste.
