By ASDA. My Final ASDA Product is not a mince pie. It’s a crumble tart, filled with a toffee and apple filling. My sweet tooth has yearned for some toffee apple pies. Let’s hope it isn’t let down. As with the rest of the Exceptional range, the packaging is smart and the minimalism is strong.

We’ve got A 4 Pack of Mince Pies from Asda Exceptional range containing Whisky & A 4 pack of Mince pie from Aldi Specially Selected, containing the same alcohol. Both pies contain Whisky, and both look enticing. The similarities might end there, but I’ve gone with it. Both are four packs, so there’s more comparisons

We’ve got two packs to try! Sainsbury’s Free From which are nearly half the price of the pies we’re comparing them to below, Lovemore. These were found in Hilliers, formerly Rosebourne. Important info. Sainsbury’s: 230g, suitable for vegans and coeliacs, and are free from Gluten and Milk. The packaging looks smart and different enough from

In an all butter pastry. My son and daughter are helping me review these. The packaging is nice and neat, Black and gold is a smart design, just ask Waitrose. I do prefer this packaging to theirs though. Now to see whether the opened pies look anything like the promise on the box. We have

We’re going head to head between 4 Caramel Crumble and 4 Chocolate Caramel Crumble mince pies* Chocolate Caramel (L), Caramel Crumble (R). * they’re not mince pies! Let’s start with the price, £3 for some wide pies. They’re the widest I’ve seen yet, but they’re also quite shallow. Now, for the packaging.. (No) prizes for

These festive pies were £3 for 4 pies, equating to 75p per pie. They share the party inspired packaging of the other festive Taste the Difference range, a selection of vibrant purples and golds. The flavour combination seems interesting as well, Gianduja chocolate filling and a hazelnut frangipane. I feel like I’m in the “Great

Thanks to my Sister for getting these for me. you’re a good egg. £4.50… yes you read that correctly. We’ve got a festive club sandwich with “Umami Onions” among other goodies. The website reads as follows: “A sandwich made with chicken, seasoned mayonnaise, Cheddar cheese, beechwood smoked bacon, spinach, umami onions and chilli relish on

By ALDI. The second crumble topped indulgent pies from ALDI are millionaire’s crumble topped pies. I’m quite hungry and in a bit of a rush, so this is a quick review tonight. Delicious caramel Millionaire’s mincemeat tarts, topped with cocoa crumb. Visually, they’re very pretty. I hope they are packed with flavour, although I’m not

Wow, I had better not breathe too deeply near these.. Here we have a 4pk of Baked in Store Exceptional pies. ‘Exceptional’ is the name given to ASDA’s high quality line of products. They’re £2.50 but they look deep. I’m seeing about an inch of product below the lid, and I’m excited by the prospect

By Sainsbury’s. For today’s festive lunch review I’m having a wrap, and it’s from Sainsbury’s. My nearest supermarket as the crow flies, but when I walk there’s too much zig zagging to get there, until now when I realised I needed to try their food. I’m also going to review their ‘Pork & Cranberry Christmas
