A batch of traditional Scottish tablet, golden and crumbly, cut into neat squares. The tablet sits in an elegant ANTA baking dish lined with parchment paper on a rustic wooden table. Its slightly grainy yet smooth texture has a rich buttery sheen. Warm natural lighting enhances the homemade feel, with a tin of condensed milk, a wooden spoon, and a dusting of sugar softly blurred in the background, creating a cozy kitchen atmosphere.
