About this deal

When I try and explain it to people who’ve never heard of it or tasted it, I usually compare it to fudge, and I have heard it called Scottish fudge before, although it has a medium-hard texture rather than soft as a fudge usually does.

Thank you for this recipe! I’m teaching a group of teenage girls about connecting with their ancestors and having Scottish ancestors myself, thought it would be fun to bring a little treat representing that part of my family history. Although I’ve been to Scotland, I’ve never tried Tablet before but figured you really can not go wrong with butter, sugar, and sweetened condensed milk! Any tips for Canadian made tablet appreciated. Will also make a lovely neighbour gift and hand down recipe for the grandkids. Amazing you are doing this…Thank you! It still needs lots of attention to make sure it doesn’t catch on the bottom of the pan; you won’t be multitasking while you make this one! Be prepared to devote your full time to the recipe as you’ll need to constantly stir it to make it work. Why not try your hand at making your own with the Scottish tablet recipe below? See our top tips to make sure things don’t go wrong!And that’s how you make traditional Scottish Tablet at home! It sounds complicated but it’s really not too bad. You just need to keep an eye on it and keep on stirring! I hope my little step-by-step tips will help you along the way. What if my Tablet doesn’t set? You can substitute the granulated sugar for caster sugar (superfine sugar in the USA) if you like but we’ve always made it with granulated; just make sure it’s fully dissolved. How to Make this Scottish Tablet Recipe As noted above, I used the microwave in the first part of this recipe. This is a little controversial! Tablet purists might say that it should all be done in a pan on the stove. Once you have melted the first lot of ingredients together in the microwave add it to the pan with the condensed milk. The recipe also makes quite a lot, and Tablet always makes a great gift… if you can bear to part with it! Other Scottish Classics

You’ll often hear it referred to as “Scottish Tablet”, but actually, lots of sweets similar to Tablet can be found around the world. They sometimes tend to be a bit on the softer side than the traditional Tablet found in Scotland, but some are awfully close in texture as well. Based on these, we’ve compiled these top tips. There is some further explanation above throughout the recipe method, but these will get you started. It’s often present in hotels/B&B’s as a treat on the tea tray, and there are lots of variations to be found, like Tablet Ice-cream and Tablet Cheesecake.

The Story

After it’s been sitting about 20 minutes or so you can scour the top with lines for where you’ll cut later. This means you’ll get neater lines, as it can shatter if you just try and cut it without the lines.You should leave it to set further for at least 2-3 hours or overnight if you can keep people away from it for that long! From here, you need to bring it all to a boil. This is a really important step because if you don’t get the mixture hot enough, the Tablet won’t set properly later on. Chocolate would completely change the taste, but you could add some cocoa powder to the recipe if you want to give it a go. I have seen some other recipes use water instead of milk in the tablet recipe, but milk gives the Tablet a much creamier taste.
