Chocolate Haggis was back for Burns Night 2026, and this time we collaborated with two of Scotland’s best-loved brands, Walker’s Shortbread and Mrs Tilly’s, on a new and improved recipe featuring delicious chunks of all-butter shortbread and fudge, creating an indulgent and unique dessert that’s sold as a haggis!
Watch this space to see if Chocolate Haggis will be available to buy again in the run-up to Burns Night 2027!
🥓🏃♂️ Putting the FAST in breakfast! 🏃♀️🥓
Team Howie was out in force at the @auchterarderrunningfestival this weekend and you certainly couldn’t miss us in our matching bacon rasher T-shirts! 😂
The weekend brought together the Howie family, our factory and office teams and their families for a brilliant couple of days of running, cheering and celebrating. ❤️
There was the 10K, Half Marathon, Double Dare, a Kids’ Fun Run… and a LOT of support from the sidelines!
🏆 James won the Half Marathon
🥉 Clair came 3rd in the Double Dare & 1st in her age category
💪 Sebastian conquered the Double Dare
🏃 Lynne and Sean smashed the 10K
👟 And the next generation joined in with the Kids’ Fun Run!
A brilliant weekend with a brilliant bunch. 🧡
