Off the shelf. I saw it being made once in a factory; put about 2000 lts of milk in a giant round pot and heat and move it around for several hours or days (?) until most of the water has evaporated and the milk has turned a brown and dense sticky mass. I think many countries (esp. in the EU) refuse to import it because it contains ashes (unnoticeable quantities). You can try if you want to -- I assume people must have made it by hand somehow at some point in time!
