The Big Turk is a chocolate bar manufactured by Nestlé Canada, that consists of pink Turkish delight coated in milk chocolate. The 60-gram bar contains 4 grams of fat, which is advertised as 60% less fat than the average chocolate bar.^[1] This is one of the key selling points of the bar.^{[citation needed]} It is typically found in a red, white, and blue striped package (blue on top, white in the middle, and red on the bottom).

The other Canadian chocolate bar featuring Turkish delight, Jersey Milk Treasures, was discontinued circa 1980.
