Jenny's Boilings

This is a great story, Jenny originally had a shop in Morrison Street in Edinburgh and in 1960 she was on holiday and just happened to get talking to two men who worked in a sweet factory just around the corner called MacKay’s. Pat Keggie and Walter Innes, were the two men and they teased Jenny that her Tablet was rubbish, so Jenny called their bluff and told them that if they were so dammed good they should come round to her back shop and prove they were as good as they said they were. True to their word Pat and Walter turned up and started making her Tablet and a few other things. The Partnership worked well and eventually Jenny offered to lend the money to the boys to set up a factory. On the 16th of May 1961 Jenny’s sweetie factory was stared. Since then the quality of the Boiled sweets has never been surpassed you just will not find better! Pat still works today part time and Walter's daughter Sandra runs it with the same love as her father and Pat has for the last 40 years.
