Fry's Turkish Delight

Fry's Turkish Delight

Fry's Turkish Delight is a chocolate bar made by Cadbury, and formerly by J. S. Fry & Sons. It was launched in 1914 and consists of a rose-flavoured Turkish delight surrounded by milk chocolate. It is widely marketed as being 92% fat-free.

The bar remains fairly popular in the UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand where the chocolate bar remains a staple. In Australia and New Zealand the range of "Turkish" products released by Cadbury has expanded to include mini Easter eggs, ice-cream, sectioned family block chocolate bars, and small versions used in boxed chocolates.

Among those appearing in such advertisements in the 1960s were the model and actress Jane Lumb. cite news |first=|last=|title= Our regular column covering the passing of significant - but lesser-reported - characters of the past month. |url=http://newsvote.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/magazine/7324854.stm |work= BBC News |publisher=|date=2008-04-02 |accessdate=2008-04-02]
