TL;DR
For good-value filled Turkish delight, check the outdoor stalls around the Egyptian Spice Bazaar (Mısır Çarşısı), rather than only the shops inside the building. You can usually taste before buying, and prices are considered reasonable for Istanbul.
Look at the vendors outside the Egyptian Spice Bazaar, not just inside the Mısır Çarşısı building. The outdoor stalls are recommended for more reasonable Istanbul prices.
At the outdoor stalls near the Egyptian Spice Bazaar, you can usually sample Turkish delight—including filled varieties—before choosing what to buy.
If you are buying Turkish delight as a gift, the outdoor vendors by the Egyptian Spice Bazaar can arrange decorative ribboned packaging for carrying it home.
