How To Make Cactus Pinata
The width of the cardboard strips will determine how wide the pinata will be. 3. Tape the long strips of cardboard to piece both sides together. 4. All done. The pinata is now ready to be decorated with paper fringe. 5. Next, using colorful streamers, cut little strips of fringe.
6. Glue the fringed streamers in overlapping layers around the cardboard. 7. If you plan on filling it with candy, make sure you cut a hole or door to put the candy in. And if you plan on hanging it make two holes on the top to loop rope. I didn't hang mine, as I used it as a centerpiece for the table. 8. Place at the center of the party and use for props for photos. This cactus was the perfect center piece for the taco bar, but could also be filled with candy to later one be used for a fun game! We gave ours a way to guests.
The pan should be very lightly oiled and the scones cooked, two at a time as shown, over a medium heat for around three minutes each side until beautifully golden. When the scones are ready, they should be placed on a wire rack to cool. As touched upon earlier, tattie scones are commonly eaten in a variety of ways. They can be very simply served with butter, they can be served with jam, or they can simply be eaten and enjoyed as they are, without any further cooking or additions.
Probably the most common way to eat tattie scones, however, is re-fried. Just to be a little bit different, I thoroughly enjoyed a roll and bacon and tattie scone while taking the photographs for this page. 1 2 3 4 5 5 stars from 1 rating of this recipe for tattie scones!

I may not be scottish but I'm as close as one can get when it comes to scottish cookin i'm really famous for my Caramel Shortbread and I know that I want to try this recipe too.
Thanks for your visit and your comment. Good luck with the tattie scones. I honestly think the mistake most people make is thinking their dough is too wet and adding more flour, not realising that the dough is supposed to be wet and needs to be wet. Tried to make tattie scones a while back and they were a bit dry. Will try again with this recipe.
Grew up in Glasgow eating these every Saturday lunch with fried tomatoes, fried bread, fried eggs and black pudding. Can't find them here in U.S. Thanks for all the comments. Hope you try this recipe and it works for you, Amy. It can be a bit tricky getting used to handling the dough but well worth the effort! I tried making them from another website, but they didn't turn out so good, so will have to try these!
Great stuff, this. Will have to try these. Should warm the residue of Scottish blood coursing through my veins! Thanks for sharing. Bookmarked! Thanks for that, I'll give this a go. We're from Scotland, me Aberdeen and my wife Glasgow, now living in Derbyshire with both sets of parents in Scotland.
Every time we go to Scotland, we bring back tattie scones and Aberdeen butteries as we don't get them here. I often just pop the tattie scone in the toaster and butter. Recipe for that fruit loaf you fry as part of Scottish breakfast, I will have to try this.
