Save The Nougat
Save the Scottish Nougat:
A Heritage Worth Preserving
The Scottish nougat, a cherished confectionery delight for over a century, is on the brink of extinction. With the recent cessation of production by the last manufacturer, this iconic treat risks disappearing from our shelves and memories.
Our Mission
We are Aldomak, a dedicated team with a rich history in producing traditional Scottish confections. Having previously crafted the beloved nougat, we possess the expertise and passion to revive this delicacy. To achieve this, we seek your support to secure the necessary capital for restarting production and ensuring the nougat's legacy endures for future generations.
The Significance of the Scottish Nougat
The nougat holds a special place in Scotland's culinary heritage. Traditionally enjoyed as a seaside treat, it features a marshmallow layer sandwiched between wafers and coated in chocolate, often paired with ice cream. Its absence has left a void in local businesses and among Scots who hold fond memories of this delicacy.
