I would go on the Rich's website.They have a region map where you can check to see where they have warehouse etc..See what is closest to you and call them up...They may sell to you..they may not...might only sell to wholesale businesses.It's worth a try!! I was on there the other day and found out they have a Canadian supplier in Eastern Canada...too far for me!!

Sorry Rich's does not sell to the individual only to businesses. I saw that on another thread about Bettercreme. I think there may be somewhere on the web to order it but can't find the thread that told where.

You can order it online at sugarcraft.com. The shipping is around $30 dollars though.

It is a refrigerated product so shipping to individuals is not cost prohibited.

But what you can do is find out who your local food distributor is. Try Sysco, Sigma etc....they usually have warehouses in various areas and they might have a cash & carry. I know it varies from state to state and I am sure province to province.
Also, if you have a Costco (you do in Alberta) & or please don't strike me down for saying this...a Sams Club tapedshut.gifthumbsdown.gif you can buy it from them in tub form you just have to go to the bakery and ask them for it.

Plus, in Canada you can try using powdered Dream Whip which is sold in most grocery stores on the shelf and you don't need to put it in the fridge until you make it. It is made by Kraft.

Good luck Claire

There are Sam's Clubs all over Canada _ you can buy Bettercreme from them, but again you have to buy it in a huge amount, I think when I called it was a 10kg or 20kg pail.

Not here in Western Canada.....I wish there was!!

I actually just checked their site and they will be closing all stores down in Canada as of March 1/2009....I was right...the stores they did have were all in Ontario! icon_wink.gif
