    How did they taste then? I saw them at the weekend and was tempted but didn't buy any.

    the mince pie itself was really nice but i think i may have been a bit conservative with the pine sugar as i was worried it might taste weird, but next time i will be a bit braver and use more

    They are delicious! I love puff pastry mince pies and the pine icing is great, if a little gimmicky..
