Also La Bottega Nicastro in the ByWard Market. Plus pretty much any gourmet shop in the ByWard Market that carries European delicacies.

Nicastro's on Merivale is where I get mine. They have several different tin sizes (and a couple of different brands the last time I went). At the back.

Pretty sure I have seen these at Nicastro's in the Market and at Grace in the Kitchen in Kanata. You might also check at the Bagel Shoppe on Wellington.

Thank you so much! I will put on my detective hat and call these places!

There is a new store that just opened in Westboro and the majority of itmes they carry are imported from France. I can't recall the name but it is on Richmond Road near Golden on the north side in a condo building. Sorry I can't be more specific. I think the name of the building is Station something or other. There is also, or used to be, a French import store in the market. You might also try Grace in the Kitchen in Kanata. They often have some of the more unusual items.

Don't know about Ottawa in particular but was visiting university friends in TO this weekend. My friend wanted to check out Winners and I tagged along saw some Marron Glace there along with the nice almond crunch from Mrs May's I had in Vancouver.

Does anyone know where to find some in Ottawa?
