Selfridges have unveiled their advent calendar for mince pie lovers
If a few mince pies over the Christmas period aren’t enough, then how about a daily mini mince pie?
Selfridges' newest advent calendar includes four festive flavours. As you open the window each day, one of these will help you start – or finish – your day with a taste of Christmas.

Handmade in the Cotswolds, Selfridges Mince Pie Advent Calendar will deliver you either a traditional mince pie, one with an almond twist, a chocolate inspired mince pie, or one that is citrus topped.
On the big event itself, Christmas Day, there’s a special treat of a mini icing topped Christmas cake. The perfect pre-cooking snack or a well deserved reward after polishing off your Christmas lunch.
Will you opt for a traditional calendar, one with mince pies or a boozier alternative?
