Proper Scottish tablet, handmade in Glasgow the way it's been done for generations — sugar, butter, and condensed milk, boiled in open pans and poured onto cast-iron cooling tables.
We make two styles. Our Totally Tempting Tablet uses no preservatives at all — just four simple ingredients and generations of know-how. It's traditional Scottish tablet in its purest form, with a familiar crumbly texture and golden colour. Our Irresistibly Indulgent Tablet is a smoother, richer take on the classic, made to last longer (up to 28 weeks) so it's ideal for gifting, weddings, and stocking up.
Both are made fresh every day by our master confectioners and shipped direct to your door with free delivery across the UK. Available as individual bars, sharing bags, and 2kg tubs.
What is Scottish tablet?
Scottish tablet is a traditional confection made from sugar, butter, and condensed milk. It's firmer and grainier than fudge, with a distinctive crumbly-then-melt texture. It's been a fixture of Scottish baking for over 300 years.
How is Confectious tablet different from shop-bought tablet?
We handmake every batch in our Glasgow bakery using open pan boilers and traditional cast-iron cooling tables. Our Totally Tempting Tablet contains no preservatives at all — just four ingredients and a recipe that hasn't changed since the early 1900s. Most supermarket tablet is mass-produced with additives.
How long does Scottish tablet last?
Our Totally Tempting Tablet (preservative-free) lasts approximately 5 weeks from production. Our Irresistibly Indulgent Tablet has a shelf life of up to 28 weeks, making it ideal for gifting, weddings, and posting.

What's the difference between Totally Tempting and Irresistibly Indulgent Tablet?
Totally Tempting is our preservative-free, traditional recipe with a slightly granular texture and a 5-week shelf life. Irresistibly Indulgent uses both condensed and evaporated milk for a smoother, creamier texture and lasts up to 28 weeks.

No. While both are sugar confections, Scottish tablet is boiled to a higher temperature, giving it a firmer, more granular texture that crumbles then melts. Fudge is softer and creamier. We make both — try our Fudge n Fantastic to compare.
