Confectionery keeps 157-year-old Turkish delight tradition alive
Hafız Mustafa, one of Istanbul's most famous confectioneries, continues its world-famous Turkish delight tradition with its 157-year-old recipe.
The sweetshop was established in 1864 by İsmail Hakkı Bey in the Bahçekapı neighborhood of Istanbul's Fatih district, where he started to make rock candy.
