Just received the following comment on WhatsApp from a customer:

"I have a confession… I opened the chocolate shortbread… family only gets back tonight… don’t think any will survive me for them to taste 😂😆🤣"

I also got a phone call yesterday from another customer to say that she's had to hide the batch that she bought from me this week from her family, otherwise her brother from Durban who still has to arrive won't get any!

I LOVE stories like this! It's why I don't actually know with 100% certainty the shelf-life of the shortbread - it never lasts long enough to test! What I WILL say is it needs to be kept in an airtight container once opened, and then it SHOULD theoretically last for 2-3 months. But, even in my house, it's going to be difficult to test that 😆

Final day for orders for the Christmas specials (Checkerboard pack for R100 and gift box of Pistachio & Cranberry for R30) is Sunday 22 December - 2 days left for that last minute Christmas shopping!

What's been happening with Scotty Dog lately? I've been a bit under the radar because we were moving house. However, we're all settled and ready to supply your favourite shortbread. In fact, here's my first two orders ready to go ....

Shortbread is a classic Scottish cookie known for its rich, buttery flavor and melt-in-the-mouth texture and National Shortbread Day encourages people to indulge in this simple yet exquisite treat so do yourself a favor and order a pack and celebrate today the right way!

It's nearly Hogmanay, one of Scotland's favourite celebrations. You might call it New Year's Eve or Old Year's Night, but it boils down to a celebration of being out with the old and in with the new. Simon knows what's what - Scots do love their shortbread at New Year! To end off 2023 and bring in 2024, why not have some traditional Scottish Shortbread? Between now and 3 pm on Saturday, we're offering a batch of traditional shortbread (around 50 pieces) for R100. Hurry, though. This special only has just over 48 hours to run!

Happy St Andrew's Day to all our Scottish friends and Scotty Dog Supporters.

Scotland is absolutely at the heart of everything we do, and this day is one of the two major celebration days in Scotland (the other being Hogmanay - New Year's Eve).

So how did a humble Galilean fisherman turned disciple become the patron saint of a tiny wee country thousands of miles away from modern-day Israel? Well, the story goes like this: in the 9th Century, King Angus in Scotland was preparing for a battle against the English. St Andrew appeared to King Angus in a dream promising him victory and on the day of the battle, an X symbol appeared in the sky, which was the symbol of St Andrew, so he vowed that if they won, St Andrew would be made the patron saint of Scotland - and that is exactly what happened.

This is why the Scottish flag has the X-shaped cross on a blue background, as it is St Andrew's symbol (eagle-eyed customers might have noticed the St Andrew's Cross on Scottie's scarf in our logo).

St Andrew was officially named the patron saint of Scotland in 1320.

So today is a day to celebrate all things Scottish! How about some traditional Scottish shortbread to accompany a wee dram?
