    I always make mince pies, but use the mincemeat bought in a jar. Maybe this year I can use one of your recipes and see how I get on

    I love to make my own mincemeat, I don't like shop bought with the huge chunks of peel in it. I intend to try some of yours, love the sound of the Californian raisin x
