Pukka Christmas Dinner Pie

Pukka Christmas Dinner Pie - Tender pieces of chicken, chipolata sausages, pork stuffing balls, carrots, smoked bacon and rich chicken gravy, in a light puff pastry case.

 

This was definitely up my alley.

Basically if you like gravy,  chicken, stuffing and chipolata then this is for you.

Everything inside a yummy pie.

I couldn't wait so I used the microwave instead because I wasn't bothered about the pastry not being crispy.

Anyhow, I really enjoyed it.

Aunt Bessie's Star Yorkshire Puddings (Star Yorkshires)

Aunt Bessie's are famous for Yorkshire puddings and roast potatoes which you will see at every supermarket, yet it took me so long to try their Yorkshire pudding.

If it wasn't for the Star Yorkshires, I don't know when I would have tried because I normally dine out or get ready meals which have everything.

So this Christmas, I finally tried Aunt Bessie's for the Star Yorkshires and they were so lush that I had a whole bag of 8 to myself.

They were seriously lush with gravy.

Each Yorkshire was consistent, crispy and light on the outside and airy soft delicate in the middle.

M&S Food Decorate your own Churros stars

I love anything star shaped so got these M&S Food Decorate your own Churros stars which were £8.

In the box, you get cinnamon sugar, sprinkles and chocolate sauce.

Unfortunately, I only got one snowflake sprinkle in the sachet.

I decided not to decorate the stars since there was only one snowflake and not everyone likes chocolate sauce so it was used as a dip.

Additionally, I added a whipped cream dip as well.

The star shaped churros are actually better than regular churros in my point of view because it has less surface area hence less oil absorption when they were manufactured.

The texture was like Jamaican dumplings because I undercooked them intentionally as I wanted a soft centre.

Overall, I really enjoyed dipping these stars into chocolate, cream and the cinnamon sugar.

The chocolate sauce was lush as it didn't taste cheap.

Pieminster Deer Santa

A wild British venison, bacon, red wine & green lentil pie.

The pie was baked perfectly so despite not having a plate and proper cutlery, the pie held together well along with the lush fillings.

Candy Can Wonka toffee apple candy can

Finally found it Thanks to everyone you who told me.
It tastes just like Harry Potters retail butterbeer.
All you can taste is the sweet toffee/caramel but not so much on the apple.
The only thing I didn't like was the aftertaste of the sweetener so 4/5

Ginsters BBQ hunters chicken slice

Newish slice from Ginsters that was launched in October 2023 but not spotted until now.
I didn't have any expectations because I thought it would be sweet.
It turned out to be comforting and delicious.
The ginsters team are good with their products for not being sweet just like the chicken stuffing because it didn't have cranberry.
I felt that the slice was probably much nicer than the actual hunters chicken dish which I find dry with too much chicken and not to mention the bbq sauce is too sweet.
Definitely wouldn't mind having this again.

Itsu katsu rice noodles

Overall, these were nice because the soup flavouring comes from a thick paste from the sachet.
The instructions are fill to the line then add the sachet but I felt that the water can be drained off before mixing the sachet because it is tastier that way.
