Shortbread biscuits.
You can bake these or buy them individually wrapped.

how about Biscotties! You can buy small packages of them I don't know prices but there was a thread on here about where to get them for mm.

you could make scotch flavoured cupcakes. (called fairy cakes in the uk...though not so much anymore, obvously)

google, loads of cake recipes made with scotch.

I don't know about other people, but a lot of this stuff is not majorly scottish so if I was receiving shlach monos with some of the things mentioned here, I would never ever put 2 and 2 together and connect it to the scottish theme.
Even if it was obviously scottish, not everyone else knows that.
Also, I often get shlach monos when I am out or busy so I only look at it properly that night, and not in a million years would I remember - oh the people who sent me this were dressed up scottish and the food here is related to scotland....
is it just me who is a bit slow!?!?

It's going to come with an explanatory poem, I believe.

Update: I made 3 kilts for my girls today. I remembered that one of my neighbors was raised in scotland and asked her for advice. She gave me a kilt which I studied and copied.

Too bad she doesnt have bagpipes too.

If you put a straw sticking out of your bag it can be a "bag pipe"

And here is our poem:

Great SCOTT! It�s that time of year,
Its Purim again there�s fun in the air!
So grab up your BAGBIPES and give them a toot,
The Shanie5�s are here and they are a hoot!
Wrapped up in KILTS and covered in PLAID,
The sight of them sure makes you glad!
In their SPORRANS they carry Mishloach Manos for you,
There�s butterSCOTCH candy and biSCOTTi too!
A roll up to wrap up just like a KILT,
And a chocolate LASSIE for your calorie guilt!
All in a BAGPIPE is our Purim plan,
Sealed with SCOTCH tape by the Shanie5 CLAN!
