Friday, 25 January 2008New pan, new thingsI have a new pan. I'm not sure if it's normal to be quite this pleased with something as simple as a new pan, but it's just about the world's finest piece of cookware.For one thing, it was a gift - a well-chosen, well-timed gift. For another thing, it's large, holds lots of tablet and, better than just about all of the above, it practically cleans itself. Anyone who's ever tried to scrub a pot caked in tablet - which can assume the consistency and temperament of quick-set concrete in next to no time - will know what a blessing an easy-clean pan can be. It's speeded up the process in so many ways, and given me more time to try smaller batches of test flavours (I always try to think a few Flavours of the Month ahead, just to make sure everything's been well taste-tested). So today's been spent filling orders and trying out some new things. One of the things I've been trying out has already identified itself as February's Flavour of the Month and might well be my very favourite Flavour of the Month so far. Really, it's fantastic. Delicious. Addictive. What is it? Well, that would be telling. All will be revealed in just a few days, but trust me - you're going to love this one.

Saturday, 12 January 2008Sticky buns + butter tablet = yay!It's been a busy start to 2008.A new year means 12 new Fablet Flavours of the Month, for one thing - 12 entirely new, different and totally scrumptious flavours of home-made Scottish butter tablet to imagine, create, test and perfect. That means a lot of taste testing of sweet, tasty gorgeous things. It's a tough job, but someone's got to do it. Luckily, that someone happens to be me. So far, the first few months of the year have been decided. I won't reveal then all here, because that would take away the fun. January's flavour, though, is one I'm very, very pleased with, and I'm pretty certain no one out there will ever have tasted tablet quite like it before. As you might've guessed from the title of the blog entry, I've tried combining the flavours of two of my favourite things - and the results speak for themselves. Take the cinnamon-y warmth of a fine sticky bun and the smooth, mellow blend of vanilla, butter and fair trade sugar that goes into every batch of Fablet, and you get our Stickey Buns Fablet. It's up there with the best of our ever-growing range of outstanding Scottish sweets and, as usual, it's hand-made with love. Head on over to the shop and check out Sticky Buns - our Flavour of the Month for January, or stock up on some old favourites. Oh, and ... Happy New Year!
