Yesterday I had my first mince pie of the year which was an absolute beauty with lush pastry and brandy butter inside.

Also, tell me in the comments: if you've had your first mince pie yet? If you bake them? and lastly, what's your favourite mince pie accompaniment is.

Yes! I love mince pies!I used to make my own mincemeat, then make pastry from scratch too, tho I have also bought mincemeat. Now I'm on my own, I don't bother, nor do I any longer make a Christmas cake (have never liked Christmas pudding so never attempted that).I don't eat sweet food now, so altho I do like mince pies, I won't be buying any, sorry.

Mince pies in November!? Might as well start draping tinsel over the pumpkins...
I don't mind them, but certainly can't say I love them lol. I don't buy any until at least December though! I also tend to buy some fondant fancies, saw an Irish Cream (Baileys) version last year which were quite nice. -
If I'm forced to have one I will.I don't enjoy them, but it does feel like a Christmas tradition to force myself to have at least one.
Irish Cream fondant fancies @OverlyAnxious Now that's what I'm talking about! -
I have no opinion on mince pies.I can't really comment as I've never had one, they just not really on my radar, sorry that's really bad isn't it Thank you

No, mince.... in pies? Bleugh disgusting!Eeew, no thank you. This includes Christmas cake and pudding. I can't stand dried fruit. I remember a time many years ago when i went to visit a relative near Christmas. They asked me if i would like a piece of cake, without asking what cake it was i just replied "yes please." Then i realised it was Christmas cake but because i didn't want to hurt their feelings i just sat and ate it....slowly. -shivers- yuck disgusting.
I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help. -
