The flakiness of filo is a nice contrast to ice cream and sorbets. Some large cities still have bakeries that sell fresh filo. If you can find fresh, by all means buy it. Store-bought filo can be found in the frozen section of your grocery store. Defrost filo overnight in the refrigerator. Filo sheets come in different sizes, depending on how it is cut and packaged by the manufacturer.
