Scottish Food & Drink Fortnight

SEPTEMBER 5TH, 2017

Celebrating All Things Scottish…

Iain Burnett creates his famous Velvet Truffles from a small kitchen in Grandtully in Perthshire where he is surrounded by quality fresh ingredients. The Velvet Truffles are created using heather honey & fresh cream from a single herd of local Friesian cows. The quality of this cream is crucial to achieving the velvety, delicate texture and the rich sweet taste of Iain’s truffles.
This fortnight has been chosen by Scotland Food and Drink to celebrate & support Scotland’s producers. Over the next 2 weeks we will be celebrating all things Scottish about Iain Burnett Highland Chocolatier, from the ingredients used in the chocolate kitchen, to Iain’s partnerships with award-winning producers from all over Scotland.
