They have a rough, home made, look to them and I'm fond of the semi-open star design. But how do they taste, I hear you type?
(I can't hear you type.)
Pretty ruddy good! The firmish pastry is just the right level of not-too-sweet, and while the filling starts off fruity but maybe a bit bland, in comes a big boozy wave of brandy and cider. It's only a slightly sickly aftertaste that detracts from what are lovely mince pies.
Not "the best" but not far off. 4 out of 5. #MincePieADay #MincePieFest2023
