Where to get Eccles Cakes

In Ottawa? Elsewhere? Excellent ones at Betty's in York I know. Gotta be made with butter in the pastry and currants in the filling!
I used to get them at the Devon Bakery in Manotick but since they went out of business I haven't come across them in Ottawa. I used to love one with a cuppa joe before heading out to the barn in the morning.
Has anyone seen them out there?

Andy, you can definitely get Eccles Cakes from The English Pie Shop at the Carp Farmers' Market. In fact, I've cloned your request (and my response) to that food entry.

I wasn't too thrilled with the Eccles Cakes here, but it's been so incredibly long since I had one in England that I honestly don't know how it compares. Definitely worth a try!
