Product description
This product is sold as a single 18-ounce box of Fisher Original Scone & Shortcake Mix. The package contains the dry mix only; no dairy or eggs are required to prepare the dough.
Formulated from simple, high-quality dry ingredients, the mix is designed to recreate fair-style scones and shortcakes at home. Preparation is straightforward: combine the mix with water, mix until the dough comes together, knead briefly, divide into portions, shape or cut, and bake until golden.
The mix is intended for making traditional scones and shortcakes as breakfast items or sweet treats. It accepts additions like dried fruit or sugar toppings and freezes well once baked. Cooking times are short, making it practical for quick batches when fresh baked goods are desired.

So easy and reliably delicious
Incredibly simple to make—just add water, mix, knead briefly, portion and bake. The scones come out fresh, soft inside, mildly sweet and warm straight from the oven. Tastes like homemade with none of the fuss; now a regular breakfast go-to.

Fair-style flavor at home
These reproduce the scones I remember from fairs. I bake on parchment so bottoms don't over-brown and they turn out consistently well. Buying larger packs is more economical without losing that traditional flavor.

A worthy alternative to other mixes
I used to buy a different brand, but this one matches or surpasses it. Easy to throw together—I add dried apricots or cranberries, sprinkle turbinado sugar, shape and bake. Yields more scones per box than I expected.

Rolando C. 5/5
Brings back fair memories
Grew up watching scones made at the state fair and now I can recreate that at home. Simple to prepare and a great value; makes it easy to enjoy those nostalgic flavors any time.

Nostalgic, fluffy scones
If you remember fair scones, these capture that melt-in-your-mouth texture. I moved far from the fairgrounds and ordered a multi-pack to bring those flavors home. Fresh from the oven they're worth the effort.

Grrgoyl 5/5
Not all mixes measure up
I tried a different scone/muffin mix once and it was dense and overly sweet—nothing like a scone. This Fisher mix is foolproof: you add water, form the dough and bake. Results are firm enough for butter and jam and very scone-like. Glad it's still available online; a multi-pack suits my baking habit.

22TWAINS 5/5
Quick, tasty breakfast option
Fast to prepare and cooks in about 14 minutes. A single box makes roughly a dozen scones, and while the box contains significant fat overall, each scone has modest fat per serving and no trans fat. I vary them with raisins or cranberries and freeze extras for later.
