                     Amendment No. 1 (Final) to Schedule 13D
                     ---------------------------------------

                  This Statement amends the Schedule 13D, dated December 8, 1995
(the "Schedule 13D"), filed by Scoggin Capital Management, L.P. ("Scoggin") with
respect to the Class A Common  Stock,  $.01 par value (the  "Common A Stock") of
Spreckels   Industries,   Inc.,   a  Delaware   corporation   (the   "Company").
Notwithstanding  this  Amendment  No. 1, the Schedule 13D speaks as of its date.
Capitalized terms used without  definition have the meanings ascribed to them in
the Schedule 13D.

I.       Item 3 of the Schedule 13D, "Source and Amount of Funds or
         Other Consideration," is amended by adding the following:

                  "Between  December  1995 and  August  1996,  Scoggin  acquired
72,000  shares of Common A Stock for  aggregate  consideration  of $976,175.  In
April 1996,  Scoggin  acquired  Warrants to purchase 30,000 shares for aggregate
consideration  of $193,650.  The cost of such shares and Warrants was funded out
of Scoggin's working capital which may, at any given time,  include margin loans
made by brokerage firms in the ordinary course of business. In addition, between
December  1995 and July 1996,  24,000 shares of Common A Stock were acquired for
aggregate  consideration of $362,478.  The cost of such shares was funded out of
cash in managed customer accounts of Scoggin."

II.      Item 5 of the Schedule 13D, "Interest in Securities of the
         Issuer," is amended and restated as follows:

                  "(a) Scoggin  beneficially owns an aggregate of 233,333 shares
of Common A Stock,  representing  approximately  3.7% of the  shares of Common A
Stock.1  Such shares  consist of 193,683  shares  issuable  upon the exercise of
Warrants to acquire shares of Common A Stock owned by Scoggin, and 29,650 shares
issuable upon the exercise of Warrants to acquire  shares of Common A Stock held
in managed customer accounts. (See Items 5(d) and 6)

                  (b) Subject to the following two  sentences,  Scoggin has sole
power to vote and dispose of Common A Stock  beneficially owned by it. By reason
of its  position as general  partner of Scoggin,  S&E  Partners may be deemed to
possess  the  power  to  vote  and  dispose  of the  shares  of  Common  A Stock
beneficially  owned by Scoggin.  By reason of its position as general partner of
S&E,  Scoggin Inc. may be deemed to possess the power to vote and dispose of the
shares of Common A Stock beneficially owned by Scoggin and S&E Partners.

- --------
1        Based upon  6,006,362  shares of Common A Stock reported by the Company
         to be  outstanding  as of May 17, 1996 in its Quarterly  Report on Form
         10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 1996.

                  (c) Except as set forth on Schedule II annexed hereto, Scoggin
has not effected any transactions in the Common A Stock during the past 60 days.

                  (d) The right to receive  and the power to direct the  receipt
of dividends  from,  and the proceeds from the sales of 9,150 shares of Common A
Stock reported beneficially owned by Scoggin, issuable upon exercise of Warrants
to acquire  such  shares,  is  possessed  by Scoggin  International  Fund,  Ltd.
(formerly UBZ Diversified  Strategies  Fund,  Ltd.), a customer for whom Scoggin
maintains a managed account.  (See Item 6) The right to receive and the power to
direct the receipt of dividends  from, and the proceeds from the sales of 20,500
shares of Common A Stock reported  beneficially owned by Scoggin,  issuable upon
exercise of Warrants to acquire such shares, is possessed by Rembrandt  Partners
LP (formerly Centennial Partners I, LP), a customer for whom Scoggin maintains a
managed account. (See Item 6)

     (e) Scoggin ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the Common
A Stock on August 26,  1996.  Accordingly,  Scoggin  no longer  has a  reporting
obligation  under  Section  13(d) of the  Securities  Exchange  Act, and Scoggin
intends not to further  amend its report on Schedule  13D to reflect  changes in
the facts set forth herein that may occur after the date hereof."

III.     Item 6 of the Schedule 13D, "Contracts, Arrangements,
         Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities
         of the Issuer," is amended by adding the following:

                  "In April 1996,  Scoggin purchased  additional A-1 Warrants to
acquire 30,000 shares of Common A Stock."
