I have seen it quoted on here for many years that Tunnocks are to be supported as they support women's rights. I have looked on their website and social media and can see nothing to support this rumour. Does anyone have any evidence? Thanks.

I saw a picture on FB, this weekend - of one of the baked delights offered by a cafe in Broughty Ferry - a thick slab of Millionaire’s Shortbread with a WHOLE Tunnock’s teacake on top!

Sadly I love too far from Broughty Ferry for it to be sensible to go and buy one. 😢

Somanyquestionstoaskaboutthis · 31/07/2023 20:10

OMG indeed. I’ll be trying those.
Laughing at serves 16 though, they’ve not met any of us MNers if they think that, or that we need storage instructions

Damn 4hr 58 seems a wee bit far, though my route does pass Tebay services and pretty near Tunnocks HQ

@IcakethereforeIam 10 bars! You need only 10 bars! I'd eat 3 whilst I was preparing the other ingredients!

As @Somanyquestionstoaskaboutthis rightly points out that's never going to serve 16!! Maybe if we double up on all the quantities!

@SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius I tried searching for an image of Millionaire’s Shortbread with a WHOLE Tunnock’s teacake on top! Just in case, but was unsuccessful then I just went down a rabbit hole of Tunnocks recipes and gift baskets

Wow! They also claim they'll keep for up to one week - I can't see that happening.

Somanyquestionstoaskaboutthis · 31/07/2023 20:25

I’ve never baked anything that’s lasted more than a day.

IcakethereforeIam · 31/07/2023 20:37

Tesco better have some fucking wafers next time I go!!

I'm sure that I have developed diabetes just from reading this thread.

Good luck for the scan @Boiledbeetle!

I'm wondering how I can incorporate Tunnocks into my favourite recipes. I'm writing a family cookbook of my own recipes (mainly in my head which is no good) and I can see that Tunnocks should feature in my terf section.

Boiledbeetle · 31/07/2023 23:30

I think I'm going into sugar withdrawal!. On the plus side having now read the diet instructions properly I have discovered that I do actually get to eat jelly tomorrow afternoon.

Yay😑 guess what I don't have in the house!

Cervix write them down!! Otherwise your grandchildren will spend years trying to replicate grannies recipes from olden days for their kids!.

So, I've done poetry whose doing the mumsnet terven cookbook?

IcakethereforeIam · 31/07/2023 23:32

Tercentenary cookbook, brilliant! Start a thread.

It's going to be all cheese and cake isn't it?

Yep and occasionally cheesecake!

I feel this one is more your area of expertise!

Boiledbeetle · 01/08/2023 00:02

OK so I can't eat Tunnocks, but on the plus side I have a cat on my bed.

This is not my cat.

Hope all goes well today @Boiledbeetle and you have a nice driver.
Cookbook sounds a great idea. Tunnocks on toast? Tunnocks lasagne?

Boiledbeetle · 01/08/2023 10:06

Thank you Somany!

I'm due to be picked up anytime between now and 11.30ish so I'm currently sat waiting to see who they send!

I could mange Tunnocks caramel spread spread liberally on toast, like the biscuit one there is (can't remember it's name).

But you're on your own with the lasagne.

Somanyquestionstoaskaboutthis · 01/08/2023 12:41

There’s a marshmallow spread I think isn’t there? I can’t say I want to try it.
I think the lasagne may be a step too far even for me. I’m enjoying your share of the teacakes now.

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 01/08/2023 13:10

Feast your eyes on these beauties!

Somanyquestionstoaskaboutthis · 01/08/2023 13:17

😍😍😍😍😍😍

SqueakyDinosaur · 01/08/2023 13:32

Biscoff is the spread. Poundland used to stock it...

IcakethereforeIam · 01/08/2023 13:54

I think Sorted Food did a sweet lasagne with kitkats. I bet that could be adapted to Tunnocks.

Boiledbeetle · 01/08/2023 14:24

oh my god 😍😍😍 SDTG

So, 1 ambulance transport, 2 woman transport team. Same crew there and back. The one who was in the back with me prefers Tunnocks snowballs to Tunnocks teacakes! That woman has good taste!

The worst bit was sat waiting for the pick up back, it was lunchtime and everyone was walking past me with lovely smelling lunches and the cafe was wafting out lovely milky coffee smells!

I'm off for a nap, (remembers there's a Tunnocks tea cake on the bedside table, I'll just not switch the light on and pretend it's not there).

Can someone eat a caramel wafer, and a tea cake for me. The ones Somany had earlier are insufficient, I'm still hungry 😞

squeaky Ah Biscoff that's it!

Cake did you just swear? mentioning the other wafer covered in chocolate bar is just not on! However a whole sweet lasagne made with Tunnocks could work (I'd been imagining it with meat😲)

IcakethereforeIam · 01/08/2023 14:36

Glad it went well for you @Boiledbeetle have a lovely nap, with your Tunnocks angel to watch over you.

I only mentioned kk's because....well I had to really. I'll leave them for the junkies*. Two fingers right back to them! Unless they did a dark chocolate ginger.......😍Though I expect it'd be a disappointment.

non Tunnock*

**should it always be written with an 's'?

Somanyquestionstoaskaboutthis · 01/08/2023 19:03

Glad it went well today boiled. You should be feeling sick now the amount of teacakes I’ve eaten for you. I must order some snowballs, I can’t find them in any of our supermarkets.
