Marrons Glace

[johnny.5]

I have not had these since I was a young lad but would really like some .
which brand would you recommend?
and how big a box ?

[bednobs]

im not sure there is a wide variety of manufactures to chose from. size of box will depend on size of wallet!

A quid each for a sugary chestnut? Hope they're not too moreish.

£1 each sounds cheap

According to Trolley.co.uk, which is usually reliable, the only supermarket to stock them is Waitrose. However they're shown as out of stock for online ordering, so you might be out of luck in your local Waitrose. The link's here anyway:

(The reviews are all very good, except from the person who complained about how much sugar there is them! What did they expect?)

Otherwise, unless you've got a specialist Italian food shop (or a decent deli) in your area, you'll need to look online. e.g. here:
