Returning Favorites: Turkey Tikka Masala and Pigs in Blanket Crisps
Joining the new flavor are two returning customer favorites: Turkey Tikka Masala and Pigs in Blanket crisps, both also priced at £1.75 for a 150g bag. The Turkey Tikka Masala crisps combine tender cooked turkey with aromatic spices, delivering a taste of festive comfort. Meanwhile, the Pigs in Blanket crisps offer a savory blend of sausage and bacon flavors, making them a perfect snack for those cozy holiday evenings. All three festive crisp flavors will be available in Co-op stores nationwide starting October 23, allowing customers to indulge well before the Christmas rush.
A Festive Twist on Mince Pies
Mince pie enthusiasts will be thrilled to see the return of Co-op’s beloved range of mince pies, with a few exciting twists. Among the highlights is the new Irresistible Chocolate & Blood Orange Frangipane Mince Pies, priced at £2.75 for a four-pack. These unique treats feature blood orange mincemeat infused with brandy and port, topped with a decadent orange and chocolate frangipane sponge, nibbled almonds, and a sweet dusting. This zesty addition is perfect for those looking to explore adventurous flavor combinations this festive season.
For those who prefer a classic option, Co-op’s award-winning Irresistible All Butter Mince Pies are back by popular demand. Priced at £2.95 for a six-pack, these pies boast an all-butter pastry filled with a rich mincemeat made from vine fruits, apple, brandy, and port, all topped with a delicately sweet dusting.
A Range of Options for Every Palate
Co-op is committed to catering to diverse dietary preferences, offering a variety of mince pie options. The Merry Mince Pies, priced at £1.35 for a six-pack, are vegan-friendly and feature a classic fruity mincemeat encased in crisp shortcrust pastry. Additionally, shoppers can find Puff Pastry Mince Pies and Shortcrust Pastry Mince Pies, both available for £1.50 for a six-pack at the in-store bakery.
For those seeking gluten-free and milk-free alternatives, the Orange & Almond Mincemeat Slice is a delightful option, priced at £2.25 for a four-pack. This ensures that everyone can partake in the festive indulgence, regardless of dietary restrictions.

Most of Co-op’s festive mince pies are already available in stores, allowing eager customers to get a head start on their holiday treats. However, for the Irresistible Chocolate & Blood Orange Frangipane Mince Pies and the Orange & Almond Mincemeat Slice, shoppers will need to wait until November 1 to indulge.
