MR KIPLING FESTIVE BAKEWELLS

-

These have the familiar shape and texture of mince pies but technicall­y speaking they aren’t mince pies. They also look sweeter than what they taste, thanks to the festive sprinkles and fondant icing.

The pastry cases are filled with plum and raspberry purée and it’s a great layer of flavours.

Sharing this mince pie with a colleague, she remarked: “I think traditiona­l mince pies are disgusting. The combo in this pie has elevated the humble mince pie to new levels.”

If you love a sweet treat and a mince pie with no mince meat, then this is the one you should try.
