Apparently in big cities some stores have them frozen or occasionally fresh,
but I live in a small city where both cranberries and cheddar are considered
extremely exotic and no one has ever tasted them except at my house. I
might have found them in Rome or Torino or Milan, but I am hours by train
from those cities.

Every time I make any cake/torte with a glaze, my cook friend will clap her
hands and say, "Ahhh, sciroppo di acero! Mi piace tanto." (ahh, maple
syrup! I like it very much.)
