They seem to have well over ordered on the mince pies, and had several pallet loads displayed at several locations around the store
The dates are throughout January ( I Bought a couple of packs that where best before 25th Jan ). Doesnt say anything about freezable on the packs - just says store in cool dry location, but has anyone tried freezing mince pies ?0 -
picked up a quids worth yesterday
8 boxes in the freezer the rest to munch over the next week
dont know if they will spoil in freezer but its not as if its much cost"If I know I'm going crazy, I must not be insane"0 -
My mum makes her own mince pies and freezes them. Just uses frozen shortcrust pastry and jar of mincemeat
The only thing I can think of freezing these mince pies is the pastry maybe more crumbly or falls apart. Still fine served warm with custard or cream.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
I froze several packet of mince pies last month and they came out fine when defrosted. Couldn't tell they had been frozen at all.0

If you crumble them up and mix them with some vanilla ice-cream then you get a rather nice mince-pie ice cream
That freezes really well. 0 -
No idea why this has been moved to "Gone off". Still plenty left at my local Sainsburys0

the mixing up with ice cream sounds good , i have some soft scoop vanilla i mixed up with some reduced clotted cream and refroze it and its proper lush"If I know I'm going crazy, I must not be insane"0

No pies left- but they now have a large end of aisle display filled with hundreds of jars of their own "Taste The Difference" range of mincemeat @ 10p each
Buyers at Sainsburys have definately got a lot of explaining to do to their bosses 0
