Award-winning UK-based bakery Fatherson has unveiled its festive feast collection for Christmas 2022 – including an array of mince pie varieties, Christmas cake, festive loaf, cupcakes, and an apple and mincemeat pie. 

“We know from our consumer testing panel, as a nation we love those nostalgic, traditional Christmas favourites – from mince pies to fruit and festive loaf cakes,” noted Laurence Smith, baker and owner of Fatherson Bakery. “But when it comes to mince pies, people also want something a little different, which creates both a taste twist and a surprise when eaten. That’s why this year our mince pie range has been borne out of a host of consumer taste tests and a revision to our family pastry recipe is set to bring the very best Fatherson mince pies.”
