Çağla Şikel Chocolate is a Turkish homemade-style cocoa confection named after the Turkish presenter and model Çağla Şikel. Tahini, honey, cocoa and butter form its rich base, while hazelnuts add crunch. It is usually set and cut into small squares, rather than eaten like a conventional bar of plain chocolate.
The flavour balances earthy sesame and cocoa with honeyed sweetness and toasted hazelnut; the texture is firm but can feel slightly soft inside. In Turkey, small pieces are often served with tea or coffee, and they make a rich little treat to share. It is energy-dense, so a modest piece is satisfying; serve thin slices with fresh fruit for a lighter-feeling dessert.

Çağla Şikel Chocolate is a homemade-style confection made with tahini, honey, cocoa, butter, and hazelnuts. It gets its rich, nutty character from the tahini and chopped nuts rather than from a conventional bar of chocolate.
To make Çağla Şikel Chocolate, mix tahini, honey, cocoa, and melted butter, then fold in chopped hazelnuts. Pour the mixture into a mold and chill until firm. The exact proportions vary between recipes.
Usually, Çağla Şikel Chocolate is made with cocoa powder rather than melted chocolate bars. The name describes a chocolate-flavored confection, but its tahini-and-butter base gives it a different texture from ordinary chocolate.
Çağla Şikel Chocolate can stay soft because tahini and honey do not set like tempered chocolate. Chill it thoroughly and keep it refrigerated; if it remains too soft, adjust the liquid ingredients in your next batch.
Yes, you can make Çağla Şikel Chocolate without butter, but the texture may be less firm and the flavor will change. A recipe formulated with coconut oil may set more firmly when chilled, though it will add a distinct coconut taste.
Almonds, pistachios, or walnuts can replace hazelnuts in Çağla Şikel Chocolate. Chop them finely so the pieces distribute through the mixture; each alternative gives the confection a different flavor and crunch.
Yes, maple syrup can replace honey in Çağla Şikel Chocolate, although it adds a different flavor and may make the mixture looser. Start with a smaller amount and adjust the cocoa or tahini if needed.
Store Çağla Şikel Chocolate in a covered container in the refrigerator to keep the butter-based mixture firm. Let a piece sit briefly before serving if you prefer a softer texture, and discard it if it develops an unusual smell or appearance.
Yes, Çağla Şikel Chocolate can be frozen. Separate the pieces and place them in an airtight container to limit sticking and freezer odors; thaw them in the refrigerator before serving for a more even texture.
Çağla Şikel Chocolate can fit into a weight-loss plan in a small portion, but its tahini, butter, honey, and nuts make it a rich sweet. A small piece is easier to accommodate than eating several pieces.
