They lived in the family home in Fairview Place Uddingston. 1912 Thomas had built a new bakery at Loanhead Mansions in the main street. 1924 Archie opened a larger tearoom above the shop. The bakers shop and tearoom are still there today. Boyd Tunnock, Archie's younger son was given the task of developing a new product. Boyd did a lot of market research and further developed the idea of using Italian meringue. He made a biscuit base, hand piped the mallow onto the base and covered in milk chocolate. The Teacake made its first appearance in 1956.
