Taste the Difference Mince Pie Ice Cream

Made exclusively for us by a family-run farm in Devon, this was a modern twist on a Christmas classic and a whole new way to enjoy the season.

A winter wonderland

Our new Mince Pie Ice Cream gave you the chance to serve up something a little bit different. In a cone for the little ones or in neat little scoops on a plate frosted with icing sugar and topped off with a holly leaf. 

Christmas on a spoon

Last year we had got an all-star line up of desserts, including this stunning Devonshire diva. Made with creamy vanilla ice cream, Taste the Difference Mincemeat and tasty chunks of sweet shortcrust pastry. It was everything you want from a mince pie, and then some.

Thanks to a very special herd

Thanks to a very special herd

Stapleton’s Farm made this ice cream and three more of our Taste the Difference ice creams. So if you find yourself driving through the luscious Devon countryside around Torrington and you catch sight of a herd of Jersey cows, blow them a little kiss. It could be the herd that produced the milk for this indulgent dessert.
