It was over 125 years ago that the Walker family started baking shortbread in the Speyside village of Aberlour where they remain to this day.
Joseph Walker founded the company when he opened his village bakery in 1898; now it is his grandchildren and great grandchildren that continue the tradition of fine baking that he started. In fact, the founder’s personal guarantee is still marked on every pack to confirm that Walker’s products are made with only the finest ingredients obtainable.
Though the Walker family have added many new products to their range during the last century, each and every one holds to those original values of quality and natural goodness.
Though increased demand means that Walkers had to modernise the equipment, they still use the same wonderfully simple recipe that Joseph would recognise were he to visit the bakery tomorrow. It is only by baking in small batches that they can ensure that classic taste for which Walker’s are famed. As it always has been, their shortbread is made using only four ingredients: flour, pure creamery butter, sugar and salt.
