tomazbodner Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Oh! I'm sorry that I don't know where to get it but surely wish to know as well. Used to buy them each time I passed by Australia or UK, or asked anyone coming to Thailand from there... But no idea where to get them in Thailand. My darn Aussie ex boss made me addicted to them ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know if they ever did, but at least for past many years, they never stocked them. This is what they have in bread section (Sukhumvit 33, but you can change to any other branch top right): https://shop.villamarket.com/catalog/Bakery/Bread/All https://shop.villamarket.com/catalog/Frozen Food/Pastries & Bread/All In frozen bread section the even have Warburtons, but only "Toasting Muffins" from them: https://shop.villamarket.com/product/228048 Edited December 5, 2021 by tomazbodner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dick turpin Posted December 5, 2021 Author Share Posted December 5, 2021 Thanks for the response guys, hoping for an outlet with a more central location as staying at the Dolphin end of Beach Road, but Siamburys seems the best bet. Indeed, used to get from Villa, but no longer seem to stock. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guderian Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Siamburi's at the top end of Soi Khao Talo has just had a fresh delivery of Warburton's crumpets. The locally produced versions don't have the right dough structure to work well as a crumpet, the butter must be able to soak through completely. I love a toasted crumpet with lashings of butter and a spoonful of honey ro strawberry jam. BTW, Siamburi's also has NZ salted butter on sale very cheap, ideal to go with a crumpet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I was there I saw Warburtons on sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're not wrong there. Now, if only Warbies tater cakes were available. I miss them more than their crumpets. If Warbies opened a shop in Pattaya with endless supplies of crumpets, tater cakes, Soreen malt loaf and Greenhalgh's pies and puddings they would make another fortune. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yummy, my favourite breakfast is a hot buttered crumpet..... or 3, but I enhanced my sin by adding pate. Someone persuaded me that was far too bad for me, so I started using Asda hommus, of all things! Edited December 6, 2021 by jacko45k 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post alien365 Posted December 6, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 6, 2021 If you're heading to Pattaya you may as well buy from one of the places already mentioned. For me, it's easier and less time consuming to make them at home. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
