Corn syrup

Just wondering if anyone can tell me where I can buy corn syrup.
I have a recipe that requires it to make a marshmallow fluff filling and was wondering if liquid glucose could be substituted or even golden syrup if need be.
Has anyone made this type of filling with either corn syrup or liquid glucose and if so how did it turn out.
Anyone seen it in any of the shops.
Found it online but it was too pricey with postage.
Thanks.

  • Thankyou,I never thought about Amazon for food products.
    I've just ordered the pack of 6,it was free delivery so not bad at just over £3 a bottle.
    I have quite a few american style cookbooks and they are alwayys mentioning corn syrup.
    Where they ask for a small quantiity,a tablespoon or so I've aways just substituted liquid glucose but this recipe requires two cups so liquid glucose would end up quite costly too.
    Once again thanks.
