"A traditional pie that could really be homemade. Properly shallow, the least sweet mincemeat with a bite of spice and insanely rich, almost fudgy, pastry topped with crunchy granulated sugar."

Leta Elliot

"Riverford's Organic Christmas Pudding is unlike any other, it's full of fruit, spice and brandy, but with a few added extras: grated organic apples and carrots. It's light, fresh and delicious. And best of all you'll still be able to move after eating it!"

HELLO! Magazine

"Quite a 'cakey' pudding with a good flavour."

Matthew Fort

"A rather superior offering. Lovely tortoise-shell-and-caramel colour. Good spice and fruit balance. Appealing peel. Light-spirited, if a bit sweet."

Rose Prince

"Riverford's mince pies are simply the most delicious I have ever tasted and they get the children's vote, too. With rich crumbly, not-too-thick pastry, they are stuffed to the gunnels with juicy mincemeat."

Kate Hackworthy

"Riverford’s legendary mince pies are all-organic, handmade, rich and buttery. They’re made with Bramley apples, vine fruits, citrus peels and a cheeky slosh of brandy."

House & Garden

"Beautifully buttery with just the right amount of pastry-to-mince ratio, these mince pies are the tastiest you can buy - yet they look homemade enough so you can pass them off as your own. Shh... we won't tell."

Kate Hilpern

"Its mince pies are handmade with rich, buttery and reasonably thick pastry and a luscious filling of vine fruit, citrus peel, Bramley apples and a princely dash of brandy. Great for pretending you made them yourself."

Jane Hall

"This was a surprisingly pale pudding with a lighter, fluffier texture than the others. But it was full of moist, zesty fruit, carrot and spices, and kept its shape well."

Victoria Joy

"Whatever’s in there, we liked it a lot, and could eat much more than usual because of the light texture."
