When I visit my brother in the US I usually stock up on chocolate. Here at home I usually visit Remarks on the corner of Oxford & Hyde Park and there is a great chocolatier in the market downtown. The Paneangeli is a little harder to find, some of the Metro locations in the south end of the city carry it, Angelo's was my supplier but now I will probably head to International Bakery (small Italian Bakery) (my sister buys it here), it is located between the corners of Adelaide & Hamilton and Hamilton & William. It's been around for years and years. Baking powder and vanilla extract can be substituted for the Paneangeli but getting the correct amount for substitution has always been difficult to find and I find the taste and texture is not the same. I was a little thrown because some mentioned it had cornstarch. My mother has always used Paneangeli, I don't even think they have baking powder in Italy or at least not when my Mom was growing up there. I think it was a new ingredient for her when she came here. I miss Angelo's (they also carried a good supply of European Chocolate) because it carried so many of the hard to find Italian ingredients, but good news I think they may re-open at the Thompson Road location, keeping my fingers crossed. By the way if you run across the brand Bertolini, you can use as well, they manufacture the cake yeast too. It's funny you posted a comment today because I have another reader that commented today and she is from Port Stanley, it really is a small world.

I'm a new reader, also from London, and have enjoyed browsing through your dishes. Home town is the Sault, where all are Italian or wish we were. The Milk Chocolate Panna Cotta just went in the fridge. I haven't found a good place to buy chocolate here, can you let me in on your secret. Where to buy the paneangeli would be also helpful. Hi!

The port-cherry sauce sounds good enough to eat by itself. How lucky your niece is to have you working behind the scenes. The port-cherry sauce sounds good enough to eat by itself.

Good luck with the rest of the preparations, sounds like you have a huge amount to get through!
