He's the master. Creating exceedingly good cakes since 1967, a trusted name on the shelf. And with good reason. Knocks out some pretty tasty mince pies, and these are exceptional.

They're firmly in the 9 out of 10 and above camp, but have slipped just below due to price alone. At £1.25 each, they're some of the most expensive I'll eat this year.

They're a good size though, and very tasty. Thr mincemeat has brandy and cider - with bith flavours coming through clearly. The mincemeat is pretty sweet but in a very enjoyable way, not too sweet.

The pasty case holds up to a "non plate" eat which is good, and its biscuity and a little crumbly too. A great special pie
