Turkish Delight {DIY Treats}

Instructions

1. Place the gelatine, rosewater and into a large pot, mix together and stir in the caster sugar.
2. Heat the mixture created in step 1 slowly while stirring continuously. You want to keep stirring until the sugar and gelatine have dissolved. If you stop too soon, you run the risk of your Turkish delights having a grainy or crunchy texture.
3. Once dissolved, bring the mixture to the boil, without stirring.
4. Reduce heat and allow your mixture to simmer for approximately 20 minutes.
5. Remove from the stove and stir in some food colouring until the mixture turns a soft pink colour, and leave to cool for a couple of minutes to cool. You can, obviously, opt for a different colour if you prefer.
6. Grease a square baking tin of approximately 20cm x 20cm.
7. Pour the mixture into the baking tin and cover with a dishcloth or paper towel.
8. Leave to set overnight at room temperature.
9. Next morning, flip the baking tin over onto a cutting board and cut the delightful slab into squares with a sharp wet knife.
10. Sift together the icing sugar and corn flour and roll your Turkish Delight blocks in it until well coated.
