Have tried Tempo, Bells, Starling and Ileli here in the west to now avail. Has anyone seen it anywhere recently? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Chris,



I don't know about in the north but you can buy it in the supermarkets in the south OR you could even make your own!!!

Thanks all just back from Tempo in Catalkoy where I got it no problem. First time in this shop and was pleasantly surprised no crowded aisles and a good selection of most things.

Just bought it on Thursday in Lemar, Magusa. Made by Dr.Oetker, most famous and popular firm for backing supplies in Germany. They sold it in 500 and 250g
