As a family we always made Scottish Tablet at Halloween. Well I say we, but it was really my Mum who made it.  While my brother and I fought over the condensed milk, and the holy grail - the warm tablet spoon! Over the years, I progressed from spoon fighter to sugar pourer to pot stirrer. Then one year my Mum decided she wasn't going to make it.  So finally, all grown up, I decided to have a shot of making it on my own. My Mum shared the family recipe with me and the rest is history.

Even now, after the countless times I stir warm tablet. The smell of melting butter and sweet condensed milk takes me right back to our family home at Halloween.

I cannot wait for our boy to grow up with the same traditions and memories of cooking in the kitchen. For just now though, I will settle for age appropriate activities like our recent trip to a toddlers pumpkin patch. As you can see from the picture, the excitement of Halloween is in our genes!!

Wishing all our lovely customers and stockists a Happy Halloween.
