Sutherland businesses encouraged to enter 2025 Highland Shortbread Showdown

Businesses in Sutherland are being encouraged to enter the Highland Shortbread Showdown 2025.

Launched in 2023, the event aims to find the best shortbread in the north, baked by anyone from any type of business.

It is organised by Visit Inverness Loch Ness with support from other destination management organisations (DMOs), including Venture North, the DMO for Caithness and Sutherland.

Each DMO holds heats for the area they cover, with the winners going through to the grand final which will be held at Eden Court Theatre, Inverness, on Saturday, March 8.

Interested businesses can find out more about the event and how to enter here.

The deadline for entries is Monday February 3.
