OP here reporting back. Had a crazy week, and went to Whole Foods today to buy some, but they had none. Weird. Aren't they supposed to be eaten on Good Friday?

I started making my own in the pandemic and they are delicious when they are fresh. I also soak my fruit in rum which adds a nice zing to them.
