Tried Sainsburys and did not see them in Tesco (did not ask the assistant) maybe they are hidden.

Buy a block of Jus Rol and roll to required depth and cut your own.
I usually make square/rectangular ones because I don't own any round cutters. Run a sharp knife round the inside a few mils in, making sure not to cut right through, and cook. The center can then easily be lifted out and discarded or used as a top over the filling. A single block of pastry should give you at least 16 vol-au-vents. |

I'd do little square ones personally, or you will have a lot of wastage

It's hard to waste pastry because you just squidge the off-cuts together and roll again.

i rolled out the just roll pastry and used a cutter to cut out individual pieces, after about 20 minutes in the oven they rise then i take them out, cut out the middle and put in my condensed soup mushroom/chicken. i will still have a look out for the real cases.iceland used to do them, maybe still do but i have not looked for a while
