Good question!

Turkish Delight is made with sugar syrup, cornstarch (cornflour) and somethimes gelatin. Xanthan gum would probably approximate the syrup and cornstarch and gelatin would firm it up. But sugar is important for that kind of texture so it would require a bit of fiddling.

This recipe looks like a good home base to start with

Hi,

You might want to mix in roasted pistachio or hazelnuts.
