However, for you to prepare the Turkish candy, you will need special
ingredients that are mandatory to make your candy delight. The first
thing you will need to make this candy includes four cups of
granulated sugar, cornstarch, ΒΌ tartar cream, four cups of water,
some lemon juice, rosewater and special sugar known as confections
sugar. This sugar is what makes all the candy special and
mouthwatering. You will also need some vegetable oil to sum up the

Turkish delight is the good confection, which is technically
challenging to prepare. There are many recipes on internet
describing how you can do it; majority of them miss significant
points and are wrong. To make this recipe, you will have to do lots
of trial & error and experiments. In case, you follow the directions
rightly you will find that it is very easy to make.
Briefly, the Turkish delight is the combination of 2 cool materials:
Caramelized sugar and polymerized cornstarch. Producing one of these
is very simple, but to make the Turkish delight you are producing it
together, so they are been mixed in sweet, silky, moist and chewy
goo.
Whenever you caramelize the sugar, you melt this in water and drive
water out just by heating it so sugar undergoes all types of the
crazy chemical changes, which result in the formation of the
unsaturated polymers. With corn starch, you are melting this in
water & heating so that molecule chains unravel & form the mesh,
which captures water molecules.
For making Turkish delight you
caramelize or polymerize the sugar and mix wet corn starch matrix,
and boil this down till you drive sufficient moisture from whole
mass locks.
