Cevizli sucuk lokumu is a traditional Turkish sweet made by threading walnuts, coating them in thickened grape must and starch, and drying the strings. The result has a chewy, fruit-sweet coating around whole walnuts.
Walnuts are threaded onto a string, dipped in a thick mixture made with grape must and starch, then hung to dry. The coating may be applied more than once, giving the finished sweet its firm, chewy outer layer.
They are related walnut-and-grape sweets, but they are not identical. Cevizli sucuk lokumu is the Turkish version, commonly made with grape must and starch; churchkhela is Georgian and can vary in its nuts and coating recipe.
Cevizli sucuk lokumu tastes sweet and fruity from the grape-must coating, with a rich, earthy contrast from the walnuts. Its outside is chewy and its center is firm, so it is usually eaten in small slices.
Slice Cevizli sucuk lokumu into bite-sized pieces and eat it as a sweet snack or dessert. In Turkey it is often served with tea; cutting it before serving also makes the chewy coating easier to handle.
Keep Cevizli sucuk lokumu wrapped or in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. Moisture can make its coating sticky, while heat can affect the walnuts’ flavor; seal the package again after opening.
Cevizli sucuk lokumu contains walnuts threaded inside a grape-must coating and is dried in a sausage-like shape. Pestil is typically fruit mixture spread in a thin sheet and dried; it may contain walnuts, but does not have to.
Cevizli sucuk lokumu is especially associated with Gümüşhane in northeastern Turkey, though similar walnut-and-grape sweets are made elsewhere in Anatolia. Local versions may have different names and vary in the thickness or ingredients of the coating.
It contains walnuts and grape must, but its sweet coating makes it a concentrated treat rather than an everyday staple. A small piece can fit as a dessert, while frequent large servings add substantial sweetness to the diet.
Cevizli sucuk lokumu can raise blood sugar because its grape-must and starch coating supplies readily available carbohydrates. The suitable portion varies with an individual’s diabetes plan, so follow advice from your clinician or dietitian.

Cevizli sucuk lokumu is a traditional Turkish sweet made with walnuts and grape must thickened with starch. It belongs to the family of walnut-filled grape sweets often shaped in strands and sliced into pieces; this version has a softer, lokum-like character.
Chewy and fruity, it balances the sweetness of the grape mixture with the rich, earthy taste of walnuts. In Turkey it is commonly offered to guests or served in small pieces alongside tea, and it also makes a distinctive edible gift. It is carbohydrate-rich, with 68 g per 100 g, so a modest piece is often satisfying. Pair it with unsweetened tea if you want a less-sweet accompaniment.
