The countdown to Christmas has officially begun, and our shelves have never looked tastier! From our classic mince pies to our bold festive flavoured crisps, this year’s range brings those comforting favourites you’ve been waiting all year for, as well as some new indulgent bits and pieces you never knew you needed. Our colleagues have been busy picking up their top choices, so here are just a few of the products flying off our shelves and into their baskets.

Co-op Irresistible Mince Pies

These classic sweet treats never go out of style. These buttery pastry pies are packed with rich, spiced mincemeat and finished with a golden top that truly looks the part. Warm them gently in the oven, pop them in the microwave or eat them straight out of the box; they’re irresistible no matter how you go about it. Perfect for sharing or, if you’re anything like us, keeping a secret stash at home for those quiet(ish) evenings.

Co-op Irresistible Roast Duck & Spiced Clementine Crisps

An indulgent option for anyone who loves something a little different at Christmas. You can’t beat the taste of roast duck, and with the addition of tangy clementine, you can expect a festive feast in crisp form. They’re a real talking point and add something memorable to any sharing table. Expect these to go quickly, so don’t wait too long before grabbing a bag!

Co-op Irresistible Giant Cinnamon Knots

This customer favourite is back for another year, and it’s easy to see why! Beautifully baked with a soft, warming cinnamon swirl, these knots make mornings feel instantly festive. They’re big enough to share, though you may not want to. Get yourself the biggest mug of hot chocolate you can get your hands on and relax with the ultimate Christmas sweet treat.

Co-op Irresistible Camembert & Black Garlic Crisps

We’re back with another favourite; these hand-cooked crisps are fast becoming a festive hero. They bring a sophisticated twist to party snacking and pair gorgeously with a glass of fizz; think creamy Camembert balanced with the sweetness of black garlic. The flavour is bold, moreish and surprisingly warming, making them a must-try this year.

Milk Chocolate Florentines

Crunchy, nutty and coated in smooth milk chocolate, these Florentines feel like a small moment of luxury (and you know what? You deserve it!). They work perfectly as a treat after dinner or boxed up as a festive thank you to neighbours, teachers or colleagues. They’re a timeless Christmas classic for a reason.

As we head towards Christmas, our stores are filled with seasonal favourites to make hosting, gifting and celebrating that little bit easier. Keep an eye out for our colleagues’ top picks across the aisles and treat yourself to something festive on your next visit!
