I feel like we've really done it this time.
I'd been hearing complaints that mince pies are in the supermarkets - even though their "sell by" dates are before Xmas. Which would of course contravene some law in Deuteronomy somewhere. Same every year. In fact, every season.
In the teeth of people moaning that creme eggs, mince pies, and hot cross buns all come out in the stores at the wrong time of year, we were struggling to find a product that could smooth out supply chain fluctuations, while also garnering positive media feedback.
And here we are.
The Mince Cross Egg.
A deep-filled mince pie. Spicy and luxurious like a real mince pie should be. Topped with a spice bun top, marked with a white cross.
And in the middle, a lucious chocolate layer with a creme caramel centre.
The Mince Cross Egg.
Feast or fast, it's the snack that will last. All the way through to the next liturgical year. And without complaints on social media.
Available from the Beaker Bazaar.
I hate mince pies so no amount of zhuzhing will tempt me and if you want to be really zeitgeisty, it should be salted caramel.
ReplyDeleteTerry's recently announced a new chocolate orange minus the orange flavour so basically a chocolate round thingy or sphere for the pedants among us. We're doooomed.
