For me, of all the mince pies I've tried, nothing beats my Mum's freshly baked mince pies, warm straight from the oven. Happy memories.
Missis T made a dozen on Sunday. My lad had 2 within 15 mins. He never said owt. The icing sugar down his black t shirt told us everything.

It's the waiting that's the worst, till they've cooled down just enough not to take the skin off the roof of your mouth.
He who laughs last, Ave just had the last one.Got to say Missis T made them with a quality brandy mince pie filling. It makes a difference 👍

Ha, I've still got a box of four from a hamper that remain unopened. Weirdly, I'm just not feeling them now that it's no longer Christmas. Don't fancy eating them at all.

Ok folks, where can I buy mince pies in UK supermarkets in April?
You can't, sadly. They won't appear again now until September/October.

What you can buy is jars of mincemeat to take home and make them yourself. Lidl definitely had some in yesterday, others may as well.

Could drop in to a local cake shop or bakery to see if they can do a custom order.

Mrs 3OTT's friend workers at Tesco.
She sent her a pic. with pies on the shelves. Have not finished last year's yet, although it is only August.

Need to start finishing off before starting again. Thought Morrison's were great value last year
