Scottish Hampers - Velvet Antlers hamper blog Hampers, Scottish life and adventures with Scottish food.

To make our range of hampers, we travelled all over Scotland seeking out the best Scottish food, the best people who produce it, and the best knowledge about it. Our blog charts our adventures with Scottish food.

When not creating gorgeous hampers, we also climb rocks, take photographs, write and enjoy the highland life. You can read about all of this on the Velvet Antlers Blog...

Chocolate chip fougasse


I jumped out of bed a little more eagerly than usual this morning to go and see if Mandy had been yet to deliver this mornings bread. It wasn't a tasty wheatgerm baton this morning, oh no, it was a chocolate chip fougasse which I was looking forward to today. Fougasse is like the French version of a focaccia, which apparently was traditionally baked in the embers of the fire to check the temperature of wood-fired ovens.
Warmed in my regular oven and shared with a glass of cold milk, this made checking this mornings inbox a little more decadent than usual.

What a name for some bread!! It looks (and sounds) wonderful. Fort Bill is clearly the place to be - for the food alone!!

BTW, I have a good cherry cake recipe for you!
