Q: Can I use regular sugar instead of fine sugar?
A: Yes, you can use regular sugar, but fine sugar dissolves more easily and gives a smoother texture.
Q: Is there a substitute for low-gluten flour?
A: You can use all-purpose flour, but the texture may be slightly different. Low-gluten flour gives a tender crumb to the scones.
Q: Can I omit the caramel biscuits?
A: Yes, but they add a unique flavor and texture. You can substitute with chocolate chips or nuts for a different twist.
