ROTFLMAO!!!! :-D
Anyhow, to throw some more fuel in the Turkish Delight fire, I was
talking with my brother last night and he told me the Turkish Delight
he had was from Turkey or Greece. This morning I was searching around
for Turkish Delight recipes and came across this site

This quote from the site popped out at me:
"I'd always envisioned Turkish Delight as being some kind of fudge or
taffy, but it was completely different. It was kind of like rubbery
Jell-O with a slight citrus taste. Hardly delightful. "
I don't know what's in a Violet Crumble, but I adore violet flavored
candy. It's hard to find here but there's a violet candy and scented
chewing gum made by C.Howards. Nice floral and sweet.
