EDINBURGH FOG
Edinburgh used to be known as "Auld Reekie" (Old Smokie) in the days of coal fires - Robert Louis Stevenson, who was a sickly child, used to complain about it in the 19th century. Here is a recipe for a rich, sweet dessert which recalls those days. The original recipe used almond flavoured "ratafia" biscuits/cookies but as these are not easily available, almond flavoured cookies or macaroon biscuits or similar can be used. recipe from rampantscotland.com

Steps:
- The cream should be whipped until it is stiff and the sugar added to your own preference. Crush the macaroon biscuits and mix well with the cream. Add a few drops of almond essence and Drambuie liqueur (or rum, whisky or brandy) to taste. Serve well chilled as a luxury dessert.
EDINBURGH ROCK
I am told that making this unique, delicious, traditional Scottish sweet is an art, and involves trial and error if you have never made it before. This recipe is posted by request - I have not yet tried it personally.

Steps:
- Mix the sugar and water in a large pan, and, over very low heat, allow the sugar to dissolve completely.
- Constantly stir the contents of the pan with a spatula, draw it gently from side to side across the base of the pan so that the sugar is prevented from settling in a cake at the bottom.
- Immediately after the sugar is dissolved, add the cream of tartar, cover and bring to the boil.
- When the liquid boils, remove the lid and skim well.
- Boil to 126C/259F degrees.
- Pour out onto an oiled slab (preferably marble[marble is by far the best, because it will distribute the heat evenly] or a smooth, non-porous stone slab - heat-proof ceramic might work, but any kind of plastic will not and you will have a royal mess on your hands!) Cool slightly and turn the edges to the centre with an oiled scraper.
- Continue like this but avoid stirring.
- As soon as the syrup is cool enough to touch, pour whichever flavouring and colouring you have chosen into the middle and continue turning the edges to the middle.
- Take it up and pull it quickly and evenly over an oiled candy hook.
- Continue until it becomes cloudy and dull.
- Do this in a warm kitchen and if it becomes very stiff, re-heat slightly.
- Draw out the candy evenly, snip off into lengths with a pair of oiled scissors.
- Leave in a warm kitchen for about 24 hours, when the rock will become sugary and'short' when broken.
- Put into a paper-lined airtight tin to store.
- Note: The candy must be pulled sufficiently, otherwise it will remain sticky instead of'short'.
