Desperate - Where Can I Buy Espresso Powder??
Decorating By jlh Updated 8 Apr 2006 , 7:19pm by playingwithsugar


Could you not just use very strong coffee granules/powder mixed with a touch of boiling water to melt them? Just an idea!

You can find it at an Italian market. Try to get Medaglia D'Oro. Do you have any food specialty stores around? They should have it. You mean the instant espresso, right? I am guessing that you need this to dissolve in a small amout of water. If you're out of luck then make a very strong cup of coffee with what you have.

Here in Washington, we have 'Cash'n'Carry'...they have EVERYTHING for espresso stands, deli's, small mom'n'pop business'....at Safeway you can find a tall bottle of Torani or DiVinci's vanilla syrup for around 8 dollars, at Cash'nCarry that exact same bottle is 3 dollars! Two-somethin' when its on sale!

What are you using it for??
If I'm out I'll substitute regular coffee and add some coffee liquer to increase the coffee taste.

Well, Ijust got back from the store and found some espresso fine ground. It wasn't the brand mentioned above (although, I think I had the D'Oro in my hand and put it back!! ) I'm going to run it through my grinder to get it super fine. Client wants a mocha cream cheese icing. I don't want to use water to melt the grounds. How about this....could I melt some of the butter and melt the grounds into this....then let it firm in the fridge again, bring back to room temp and throw into my recipe? My recipe calls for 1/2 cup room temp butter. I don't know how the butter will turn out if I melt, firm and bring back to room temp. Any thoughts??
thanks!!

Go to a market with ethnic food sections - find the Puerto Rican section. Look for Goya Instant Bustelo or Cafe Pilon in jars. They are both espresso.
