Hi everyone, some of you might see this as not being Camino-related so I will explain. In 2015 I walked from SJPDP to SDC and during the weeks I was away my daughter took care of the home, the animals and nurturing the growing fruit & vegetables. She did the same this year when I walked from Porto to SDC. I collected various small gifts to take home for her but the ones I bought from the shop in the Hospaderia San Martin Pinario were her favourites, prompting her to ask when I would be starting my next Camino so that I might replenish her stock of the Monasterio sweets (candy). I don't know when, or even if, I will walk the Way again, so this is an appeal to anyone out there who perhaps knows how I can order some more of the sweets to be sent from Santiago to the UK. I have done all the usual searches, trying to locate the factory where they are made but without success. I am attaching a scan of the wrappers and the cellophane bag they came in to help identify the specific herb-flavoured sweets.

Should any kind person be in SDS now or shortly and be willing to buy some for me, I can transfer money via Paypal, just send a PM.

Here's hoping as the folks who stay at home and keep that show on the road are also Camino angels in my opinion. Thank you.

Thank you @mspath and @Anemone del Camino for your suggestions. I had thought of both these options then hesitated feeling it might be presumptous, but will now go ahead having been reassured by your welcome advice.
