    I used to get these from Ganapathy Traders in Parry's Corner. They said they don't carry them anymore and gave me the number of someone who makes these in Hyderabad. Would you like that info?

    You can also call Ganapathy Traders and find if they have got a new batch now...they are on the street right behind Mangharam's-I can't recollect the name now.
