FAQs
Is the biscuit tin dishwasher safe?
No, it should be hand-washed with a damp cloth only to preserve the printed design.
Can I store coffee or tea in this tin?

What are the dimensions?
The tin is designed as a standard biscuit storage size, suitable for most store-bought biscuit packs.
Does it come with biscuits inside?

Will the thistle print fade over time?

Troubleshooting
The lid feels loose
The lid is designed for easy access; if it feels too loose, ensure no debris is stuck in the rim and push down firmly to create a standard friction seal.
Exterior finish shows water spots
Gently wipe the exterior with a dry microfiber cloth; avoid using harsh chemicals or excessive water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
There is no complex setup required for this tin; it arrives ready for use. Simply wash the interior thoroughly with a damp cloth and mild soap before the first use and ensure it is completely dry before adding any food items. To maintain the vibrant blue and white finish, do not submerge the tin in water or use abrasive scrubbing pads on the exterior. It is compatible with any dry, room-temperature storage area in your home, though it should be kept away from direct heat sources to prevent the metal from heating up and compromising the freshness of the contents.
