Looking for the perfect mince pie this Christmas? here are three of the best you can find in the supermarket.
Taste the Difference Mini Ecclefechan & Mincemeat Tart Selection, £2, Sainsbury's (www.sainsburys.co.uk)
These nine mini mince pie tarts are perfect for anyone not so keen on lots of pastry. Packed with fruit, nuts, maple and pecan mincemeat, and orange and cranberry mincemeat, they're a hit for all the family.
Heston from Waitrose Spiced Shortcrust Mince Pies, £3, Waitrose (www.waitrose.com)
Heston does it again, elevating mince pies to a whole other level with his spiced tartlets, filled with mincemeat and zesty lemon curd with a crumbly topping. An absolute delight - but only four in the box!
6 Luxury Mince Pies, £1.50, Iceland (groceries.iceland.co.uk)
At just 25p a pop, these humble mince pies toppled the mighty Harrods and Selfridges in taste tests again this year - and are our favourites by far. With the perfect ratio of crumbly pastry (not too moist, not too crisp) to boozy sweet and spicy mincemeat, there's no acidic aftertaste. Get 'em before they're gone!
