which are the best mince pies?

spaceboy

Usually there's some magazine etc that test mince pies from various supermarkets, I think M&S won last year, anyone know what ones are rated highest this year?

no idea, i tend to go for the Mr Kiplings but I'm no con issuer, they all tend to go down nicely as long as they are moist

We've been eating these since early November, greedy gits!
Tried Sainsburys and they were good to start off with but recent boxes of these to me,don't seem to be as good as the one's bought in November. Pastry very chewy.

My vote goes to the Waitrose all butter brandy one's.
Absoulte quality, yum yum!
Don't have any here at work, can someone send me some by courier in time for 11am please!:rotfl:

The Morrison's ones scored top in a taste test in the Times, and somewhere else too I think...

I've just enjoyed an Iceland one, from a pack of 18 for £2 - worth every penny. Not huge but extremely tasty, well filled and lovely pastry.

We tried Aldi after they got 5/5 in a newspaper test. They are really nice, deep filled pies. Not too sweet and moist pastry.

My favourites have to be Greggs! Both the normal ones and the viennese.
