The panel blind-tested 11 supermarket premium mince pies to uncover the most delicious, as well as the blandest, wettest and least appetising. The best buy went to M&S Collection Mince Pies, priced at £2.50 for six and scoring 87% in the taste test.

Steer clear of Spar, whose luxury pies were judged by Which? to be bland and under-baked, while the “overly sweet” filling was too wet and lacked spice. Iceland Luxury Mince Pies (£1.89) and Asda Extra Special All Butter Luxury Mince Pies (£1.50) were the runners up, scoring 73% apiece. Iceland and Asda were the much cheaper joint runners-up. Iceland, perhaps better-known for its prawn rings and value-for-money frozen burgers, was a surprise runner-up. The tasters liked the star decoration, which partly exposed the “juicy” mincemeat underneath, but some experts said the filling lacked spice.

  • Christmas Food
    CHRISTMAS CUSTOMS: Christmas Food A Medieval illustration showing the consumption of frumenty. Christmas pudding developed from this 14th century porridge which was made from beef and mutton combined with raisins, currants, prunes, wines and spices. Frumenty had a soup-like consistency and was eaten on Christmas Eve to line the stomach, before the consumption of much richer food over the Christmas period. By the late 1590s, cooks were adding eggs, breadcrumbs, dried fruit and spirits to create a thicker mixture more like plum pudding. By 1650 it had become a staple Christmas dessert. Baked goods representing 300 years of mince pie history ( front row 1670 to 1720; back row 1861 - 1871. ) The original pies were made from minced meat - usually shredded mutton or veal but tripe could also be included. A range of other ingredients might be added, from raisins and prunes, to dates, mace, cloves and orange peel. Despite being savoury, some of the pies were also glazed with sugar. During the 17th and 18th centuries, specially shaped pies became a way of showing one’s wealth and social status, as only the rich could afford to employ the best pastry-cooks. By the 19th century roast beef pie fillings were popular, laced with rum, brandy, port and candied peel. It was from this rich sweet-savoury mix, that our modern shortcrust pies developed. According to Medieval custom, if you eat a mince pie on each of the 12 days of Christmas, you will have happiness for the following 12 months. It is also traditional on Christmas Eve for children to thank Father Christmas by leaving him a drink and a mince pie, plus carrots for his reindeer.
