Does anyone know where I can buy quince jelly. The solid one that is served with cheese.

spice man on Collioure and Ceret markets? Or bio shop near Gifi Argeles?

Make sure you buy pieces of quince wrapped up in a five-pound note :lol:

Seriously does it come in a jar or a box? Is it called coing?

Pâté de coings is quince paste. The product at the end of the link is quince jelly. Or try any supermarket in Spain (or the appropriate market stall) for dulce de membrillo, or codonyat in Catalan.

And for the longer run, and if you have the space, plant a quince tree. They are pretty and not fussy, and you can do many delicious things with the fruit.

I think that what you're looking is here:

You can order direct and bring it to Argeles. I have some jerez vinegar from those people. Expensive but good.

Enjoy
