Tablet (confectionery)

Tablet (taiblet in Scots[1][2][3]) is a medium-hard, sugary confection from Scotland.Tablet is usually made from sugar, condensed milk, and butter, which is boiled to a soft-ball stage and allowed to crystallise.Well-made tablet is a medium-hard confection, not as soft as fudge, but not as hard as boiled sweets.This produces a slightly less granular texture compared to the traditional home-made tablet, and is supposedly easier to prepare on a commercial scale.[citation needed] According to The Scots Kitchen by F. Marian McNeill, tablet is noted in The Household Book of Lady Grisell Baillie in the early 18th century.
