What my local M & S is selling is little cubes of coconut which are sort of soft, moist and chewy, nice, but not ice. I know they did, but I haven't seen any there for ages, and what other shops sell has too much glycerine, so doesn't have the cold crunchiness. However, I do have a South African shop which sells homemade coconut ice nearby. What puzzles me is why it is not easily available anywhere else.

Bert, I just don't have the time or energy at the moment. I keep buying the coconut, and then using it for cakes.

The other things I really really like are Indian sweets, but every time I find a shop which sell the good barfi etc, they go out of business!
