Shortbread Competition
​​
The origin of shortbread goes back to around
the 12th century when it was originally made
from leftover bread-making dough that
was left to dry out and harden.
The more refined version of shortbread, as
we know it today, is attributed to 16th century
Scotland, particularly to Mary, Queen of Scots,
who was said to have loved it.

Scones are thought to have originated
in Scotland in the early 1500s, first being

Around 1840, in most of Europe, scones became an essential part of the fashionable afternoon tea .
