Vantage House do the dried cherries as well - they are not listed but they can get them for you. Cost is £12.95 + P&P/kg. They take about a week to arrive from time of order. Call Malcolm or Jo at Vantage House - they are usually v helpful.

I haven't tried the soaked sherries as I would have the same worries as you.

I think the dried sour cherries and dried morello cherries are probably the same thing. I have also seen them labelled as dried tart cherries.

As luck would have it I was in Dundee for the day and stumbled across a fruits and nuts stall similar to the one I got them from in Edinburgh and at a similar price so got some for now.

Had a look at Vantage House but could only see liqueur soaked morello cherries or glace cherries. Have you tried using the liqueur soaked cherries? I would be worried about the moistness causing the chocolate to seize during dipping.

I use dried morello cherries which are sour. They are very popular. You can get v small packs from Tesco's .... or if you want them in bulk try Vantage House.

They were amazing enrobed in some Amedei Chuao but now that I've finished my original supply I can't find any more at a reasonable price (found some in real foods but they are £27/kg, the ones I got at the market were more like £17/kg)

Does anyone know where I might get them(in the uk)? Glace cherries are easy to find but far too sweet and I would think that the cherries that come in a jar with syrup will be too wet to enrobe easily. Did a quick google but not much luck :(
