Hi, my wife found the same as you, the taste was definitely no comparison to the 'LINGS' she was very fond of. As a result she has contacted the company and has just received a very informative letter from them. In it they say due to recent consumer pressures they had changed their traditional recipe to a pectin base instead of a geletine product. Due to the response this has raised from many people passionate about their original product they will be reintroducing the old recipe in time for Christmas 2008 and they will be contacting her again later in the year to inform her when the Turkish delight is available. If like my wife you would like to notify them of your concerns they can be contacted through www.valentines-liquorice.co.UK
The countdown has now started for Christmas 2008.
You need water, granulated white sugar, gelatin (depending on your recipe), cornstarch and icing sugar (for rolling the Turkish delight in after cooking) and the flavorings/colourings that you desire. (Traditionally the flavorings/colourings are lemon flavour and yellow, rosewater and pink. For a more contemporary flavor, lime and vodka is amazing).
To make Turkish delight at home, you will need sugar, cornstarch, water, lemon juice, and flavorings like rosewater or orange blossom water. Cook the ingredients together until thickened, then pour into a pan to set. Once set, cut into squares and dust with powdered sugar or cornstarch.

The next day the entire candy is removed from the pan and dusted with powdered sugar. The candy is cut into squares using an oiled chef's knife.
