Afyon Clotted Cream Turkish Delight

Clotted cream Turkish delight is one of the best-known treats of Afyonkarahisar. Afyon clotted cream, a registered geographical indication, is made by keeping buffalo and cow's milk over a low heat for a long time and lifting the layer of cream that forms on top. We collect the cream from two dairies every morning and roll it into sheets of plain delight the same day.

Why a short shelf life?

Clotted cream is a dairy product and, as we use no preservatives, cream delight does not keep for months like plain delight. The recommended use-by period is 30 days in the fridge. That is why we make it in small batches three times a week.

Storage and serving

• Keep it in the fridge at +4 °C.
• Take it out 15 minutes before serving; the cream softens at room temperature and its aroma opens up.
• Eat within 7 days of opening the box.

Shipping

Cream delight orders are sent in an insulated envelope with an ice pack and delivered to major cities the next day. In summer (June–September) they are shipped only Monday to Wednesday.
