Ottoman-era confectionery since 1807: Turkish delight and akide craftsmanship
Reviewed by Mes Prestiges Editorial Team Last reviewed June 2026
Operating since 1807 on Yasa Caddesi, this Ottoman-era confectionery preserves Turkish delight, akide sekeri, and lokum craftsmanship passed through generations. A living piece of Istanbul's culinary heritage and one of the oldest continuously operating food businesses in the city.
Editor's Tip
Ottoman-era confectionery since 1807, buy a small box of akide and the Turkish delight, eat them slowly over a week. This is not a sit-down booking; it's a counter operation and a heritage purchase. The Kadıköy original is the only real address; ignore the airport branches.
