Butter Tablet
Our award-wining original Butter Tablet, still made using our Nonna's recipe. This traditional Scottish version of fudge has a smooth caramel flavour, and a distinctive crumbly texture created by retaining the structure of the sugar granules when it's cooked.

Best enjoyed with
A strong black coffee, to cut through the sweetness.
Made by hand
Slow-cooled, the way we've always done it
Every batch is cooked in a copper pan, cast by hand and left to cool slowly — the method that gives our fudge its famously refined, melt-in-the-mouth texture.
Cooked in copper
Butter, cream and sugar are brought slowly to temperature in small batches, stirred by hand the whole way.
Left to crystallise, then beaten
Once cooked, the mixture is left just long enough to begin crystallising, then given one quick, hard beating to bring it to a pale, grainy, pourable consistency.
Poured & set hard
It is poured out quickly before it can set in the pan, left to firm up into its signature crumbly bar, then cut and wrapped in the shop.
