Rumours of Mince Pies - 21st August 2006 PDF Print E-mail
We have received a report from one of the tasting team that Mince Pies are on sale in their local Sainsbury's store.
While we welcome the re-introduction of Mince Pies, we have to wonder if it's just a bit early to start preparing for Christmas!

We will investigate further and report back our findings.

While browsing round a Tesco store, in the festive section, they came across some Mr Kipling "Easter" Mince Pies.
These pies seem to have special 'Hot Cross Bun Spices'.


As soon as we can get some of these pies to sample, we will let you know.....

Mince-pie eating record set in Beccles PDF Print E-mail
Most people settle for a few pints down the pub to mark their birthday, or perhaps a celebratory meal.


But for Barry Donovan, his quarter-century demanded a bit more attention. So he drew up a list of 25 things to do - including breaking a world record, looking at his own DNA, and llama trekking.


He achieved one of those ambitions today, breaking the world record for eating three mince pies in least time.

This site is dedicated to the appreciation of the Mince Pie.
We are on a quest to find the Ultimate Mince Pie....

This seasons's tasting has started
It's our mission to find the ultimate pie and we take our job seriously! 

Though many others would quake at the task before us, we soldier on, unto the breach dear friends.  Unstinting in our dedication to you, mince pie lovers, we risk wallet, teeth and waistline to bring you the very best (and worst) of this season's pies.

Last year proved to be a great year for Mince Pies with Morrisons managing to get 2 Pies in the Top 5! The Morrisons The Best 4 Instore Baked Deep Filled Mince Pies £1.59 were excellent pies and worthy winners. However the Waitrose All Butter Mince Pie came a very close second.


Is there a Mince Pie that you think is better?
