Deva-i Misk Halva, which is one of the essential foods of Edirne's wrestlers, leaves a strong spicy and aromatic taste in your mouth with the first bite. The musk feature inside the halva is a unique type of aroma that makes this flavor unique.

 The history of halva is narrated as a story of a day when II. Murat, the father of Fatih Sultan Mehmet Han, came to Edirne and a sugar confectioner from Egypt presented this dessert to the sultan, who named it accordingly. It is also known that Fatih Sultan Mehmet Han liked this flavor very much. This special aroma inside the halva also inspired the phrase "Mis gibi kokuyor (Smells like musk)".

According to another legend, Deva-i Misk Halva was discovered after the sultan's daughter became ill and doctors were consulted. It is thought that Deva-i Misk Halva played an important role in her daughter's recovery. This unique flavor, with its healing properties and rare aroma, was distributed free to the public during the Ottoman period and served at the II. Bayezid Hospital. This unique flavor of Edirne has managed to survive from the dusty pages of history to the present day and is still enjoyed by many people.
