Does anyone know anywhere in the hills district of Sydney where you can get fresh yeast. No Bakers Delights will sell it to me!!

Try Brumbys. You have to make friends with the owner and ask nicely for just a small amount of say 100 gms. Tell them you are having a hard time sourcing it.

seems for people in Syd getting fresh yeast is tricky was just reading this http://abstractgourmet.com/2006/02/where-to-buy-fresh-yeast/ and that gave a few places to try one in randwick and one in chatswood surely there are other places- it seems it easier to buy gold  ;)

I think the deli in Castle Towers sells it.  I remember seeing a sign there recently.

Don't do what I did Mel, buy the last little piece of a block - it was obviously past it's use by date & didn't work.  Make sure they are cutting you a piece from a nice, big block that has not long been opened.

In case anyone is in the Hills District, you can buy fresh yeast from the deli at Castle Towers
