Does anyone know where to buy instant espresso? I see Starbucks has instant coffees now but i have never seen espresso.

I'd like to know too. I've looked at Walmart, Krogers & Meijers and haven't found espresso.

i buy mine at the grocery store MARKET BASKET. many times it is not actually labeled loudly that its espresso powder, you may have to read the label on the back. it usually is not an american product so they call it "cafe" but there area directions for "espresso" on the back of the bottle.

I find mine usually beside the coffee. The brand that I can get is Nescafe.

I used it all the time in chocolate cupcakes and chocolate Mocha SMBC.

Look in gourmet Food markets -or look in the Italian food section of a large supermarket. It took me several years to find it - now I keep a jar handy.

I can't find it either but I just use instant coffee and use about a tablespoon in my batter and that seems to work just fine for me.

Oh, I'll have to trek down to Fresh Market or maybe try the Starbucks instant. I am suprised Wegmans doesn't have it.
Thanks for the suggestions.
