WE\u2019RE all trying to cut back this Christmas \u2013 so is it possible to enjoy your festive favourites without spending more than you need?<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve tested supermarket mince pies to find out whether own-brand goods beat the brands on quality and price.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

For this test, we compared versions from Tesco, Asda, Morrisons, Sainsbury\u2019s, Aldi and Lidl with Mr Kipling\u2019s deep filled mince pies.<\/p>\n

We gave each product a score out of ten for taste and a score out of ten for value, based on the price you pay per pie.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The value score also took into account the mincemeat content \u2013 brands which skimped on the filling got a lower score.<\/p>\n
