How it fits into a day

Turkish delight (ratluk) is sugar and starch cooked into a thick mass, so it's almost pure carbs. Two cubes, about 20 g, have about 65 kcal; Turkish delight with walnuts or hazelnuts has more. Almost all of the calories come from carbs.

A usual serving (2 cubes) is about 3% of a 2,000 kcal day. How much do you need a day? Work it out in the calorie calculator.
