The only allergen in Mrs Tilly's fudge and tablet is milk. Our macaroon contains milk and soya. We do not have any other allergens on site or in our products. Please always check the label on the specific product for the most accurate information.

Yes — Mrs Tilly's Scottish tablet, fudge, macaroon and popcorn are all gluten free. If you have specific dietary requirements, we always recommend double-checking the label of the product you're buying.

Unfortunately, we no longer manufacture vegan products at Mrs Tilly's. Our current range of tablet, fudge, macaroon and popcorn all contain milk.

Store Mrs Tilly's tablet and fudge in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Once opened, keep them in an airtight container. Stored correctly, they will keep until the best-before date on the pack, but for best flavour and texture we recommend eating within two weeks of opening.

There's no set daily portion — it's a treat after all. We'd suggest enjoying one or two pieces (around 20–40g) as part of a balanced diet. Tablet and fudge are high in sugar and calories, so they're best as an occasional indulgence.

Any time is a good time, but our favourite moments are:

• Afternoon tea — the perfect accompaniment alongside tea and scones.
• Dessert — delicious on its own or paired with ice cream for extra indulgence.
• Snack time — when that sweet craving hits, a couple of pieces does the trick.

Both Scottish tablet and Scottish fudge pair beautifully with a wide range of drinks. Some of our favourite pairings:

• Tea — a classic cup of Earl Grey or English Breakfast.
• Coffee — a rich espresso or latte contrasts the sweetness perfectly.
• Hot chocolate — for the ultimate indulgent treat.
• Whisky — the classic Scottish pairing, especially with our whisky fudge.
• Milk — simple, refreshing and creamy.
• Dessert wine — a glass of port or sherry for a sophisticated touch.
