Just the amarena cherries?

[Dianabanana]

Does anyone know if there's a way to buy Fabbri amarena cherries for a reasonable price but also in a quantity that a home cook would be likely to use up in her lifetime? It seems to me that a large portion of my $16-$20 is going to pay for the fancy jar. I thought I saw these in bulk somewhere recently but can't for the life of me remember where, and now I am kicking myself.

Edited to say that, for those unfamiliar with amarena cherries, these are the preserved wild Italian cherries in syrup.

I've seen it in 7lb tins in food halls in Rome and Paris. Have you looked on the Fabbri Website to see if they sell product online? Good Luck!

Well I did look on their website and they sell them in tins for restaurant supply, but I've no idea how I would go about getting one of those.

Diana,

Where are you located? My store is in Philadelphia and we have the bulk cans of amarena cherries. We might be able to send them to you from our Mail Order department.

Take care!
