I don't offhand know where you can mail-order quince paste, but:
1. it may be useful to know that the Spanish name is "dulce de membrillo".  (literally, "sweet of quince").
2. Some quince pastes are better than others.  When browsing in Hispanic grocery stores, I have seen some brands that contain artificial color, flavor, etc.  Look for one that contains only sugan and quince.
3. If you have trouble finding some at a decent price, let me know.  It's readily available here, and I can ship you some.  (I owe you a favor, anyway).
