Spar wins top prize for mince pies at BBC Good Food awards 2020

The pies, which retail at £2 for a pack of six, were described by judges as having a “lovely golden colour and crumbly, buttery pastry”.

Another judge said: “The filling is sweet and jammy, with nice big chunks of plump, soaked fruit and a good hit of citrus from the candied peel.”

Myles Mersh, Spar UK brand manager, said: “Our Spar Luxury Mince Pies are exceptional quality, and we are delighted that the judges of the BBC Good Food magazine were able to taste that.

“At only £2 for a pack of six, we hope they will bring some joy to thousands of homes in the run up to Christmas.”
