ALDI LAUNCHES CHRISTMAS MINCE PIE RANGE WITH PRICES STARTING FROM JUST 79P

It’s never too early to enjoy a mince pie, right? Well shoppers don’t have to wait any longer as Aldi’s mince pies are starting to hit stores NOW.

The supermarket’s traditional Deep Filled Mince Pies are an astonishing 79p for six – much to savvy shoppers’ delight. These are joined on shelf by the premium Specially Selected Mince Pies (£1.49, 6 pack) as well as some unique flavoured mince pies, including Frangipane (£1.99, 6 pack), Almond Mince Tarts and Sloe Gin Mince Tarts (both £2.49, 6 pack).

The Specially Selected Almond Mince Tarts (£2.49, 6 pack) were voted ‘Best Alternative Mince Pie’ at this year’s Quality Food Awards (QFAs). Ideal for those who like a twist on the traditional, these six delicious all butter luxury mince tarts are generously filled with a brandy and nut filled mincemeat and topped with flaked almond.

Indulge this Christmas with the luxurious Specially Selected Sloe Gin Mince Tarts (£2.49, 6 pack). The sweet and subtle tones of the sloe gin perfectly complements the nutty flavourings of the mincemeat, making the ideal festive bite.

Aldi’s Specially Selected Frangipane Mince Pies (£1.99, 6 pack) are filled with amaretto liqueur mincemeat containing sultanas, glacé cherries and mixed citrus peel, topped with a nutty frangipane and crunchy-flaked almonds.

Or try the decadently designed Specially Selected Mince Pies (£1.49, 6 pack), crowned ‘Best Decorated Mince Pie’ at the Good Housekeeping Institute’s Christmas Taste Test this year. A delicious festive treat, these pies are filled with luxury vine and citrus fruits, infused with brandy and Cognac.

Get a load of Aldi’s bargain traditional Holly Lane Deep Filled Mince Pies (79p, 6 pack), packed full of flavour and ideal for a Christmassy treat!

Gluten-free or vegan? Fear not, Aldi also has the ‘Best Free From Mince Pies’. Beating Lidl and Morrisons to the top spot at the QFAs, the four crisp sweet pastry Free From Mince Pies (£1.35, 4 pack) are filled with rich mincemeat and sprinkled with a light dusting of sugar.

Aldi’s Mince Pie range is available in stores now.
