Shortbread House of Edinburgh Warming Stem Ginger Shortbread Biscuits

Regular price $15.95

Many store brands lack the rich butteriness of true Scottish shortbread, ending up too gritty or pasty on the tongue, but these treats are truly authentic, handmade from a family recipe. Each one of these classic biscuits is richly buttery and tenderly textured with the perfect amount of crumbliness—with nubs of candied ginger sprinkled throughout that adds zip and a touch of pleasant chew. Warming ground ginger is incorporated into the dough as well, giving it an almost gingerbread-like flavor, but stays lighter and more lively without the addition of molasses. Their sweetness is balanced with a hint of salt, while the addition of ground rice gives these cookies a delightfully light and crisp texture. Dare we say, they’re better than homemade.

Flour, butter, salt, sugar, ground rice, vegetable oils (rapeseed & segregated sustainable palm oils), stem ginger (6%), ground ginger. May contain nuts, egg and soya.

Net Weight: 140 grams (7 cookies per tin)

Pair these treats with a cup of tea or glass of port or other fortified wine. Or use them as a unique addition to a cheese board—we love how the biscuit’s salty sweetness pairs with cheddar. They’re also packaged in an attractive tin ideal for holiday gifting.
