    I came across this sugar recently but cannot find where it is on sale in Dublin.

    Large crystals of brown sugar ... maybe the size of peas or half peas ... ?

    I tried Fallon & Byrne's with no success.

    Large Dunnes stores carry it, tends to be in the baking section.

    I'm sure I saw it in Marks & Spencer's Liffey Valley lately, although I'd imagine lots of supermarkets stock it. It's called rock sugar and there was a thread about it in the Food & Drink forum last year:

    I know it as sugar crystals and know I've seen it for sale in the past. Believe Tate & Lyle and Billingtons are two brands I recall but can't see it listed on either tesco.ie or superquinn.ie

    Driving me crazy where I saw it for sale and hope it wasn't in GB.
    It shouldn't be hard to source, enough coffee shops use it.

    I may have imagined it but for some reason I think the German discounters may have had it at one stage so check aldi or lidl.

    It's a reat product, I used to get a "Billingtons" brand but haven't been able to get it for a long time, got M&S rough cut cubes which are a bit like what's used in a lot of hotels. I prefer the Billingtons any day though. Would love to get some again.

    There you go:

    "Kandiszucker" from Germany, available in brown or white and this site seems to ship internationally.
