Maybe the best mincemeat weโ€™ve tasted so far, very deep fill with lots of juicy fruit with a hint of cloves. Pastry a little bit thin, especially on the bottom. Expensive at ยฃ2.20 each

About the Mince Pie Monitor

Welcome to the Mince Pie Monitor. I started sharing my thoughts on mince pies, after having a disappointing and pricey mince pie at a well known chain of establishments in London and the South East. An incident I have regaled many times over the years. From that moment of culinary adversity, the mince pie monitor was born. The principles remain the same, judging is based on quality of pastry, mincemeat, and cost - you could have the best pastry and mincemeat but if I need to raid my savings to pay for my tasty treats then they will be marked down. I hope you enjoy our thoughts, please share yours.
