Ülker Luna
I’m no longer sure how much more I can suffer for you, my dear readers. The burden of sampling local chocolate candy bars and other sweets and treats is starting to have its effect on my psyche. Ever stoic, I pressed onwards.
The Ülker Luna is an interesting Turkish delight available at convenience stores all over Romania. Dare we unwrap its contents?!
It’s got a dark chocolate outer shell which surrounds an adequate layer of rice crispies (crispy puffed rice crisps for all you trademark enforcers) that together make a blanket around some yummilicious wafer cookies filled with a vanilla creme.
Honestly, folks… I’m starting to think that most of the best treats in Romania are products of Turkish invention.

And that my friend, should not suprise you. Looking back it seems the turks were at the border the moment the first bullet hit Ceausescu. In early 1990 I was stealing money from my dad to buy Cin Cin and Ulker chewing gum because they had pictures of soccer players inside. It was all downhill from there.
