Mince pies!

Mince pies are a traditional British Christmas sweet.  The name means ミンチパイ, but there is no meat inside the pies.  Instead there is fruit and spices and brandy.

Every Christmas we eat them and children often leave a Mince Pie for Santa (or Father Christmas as he is known in England) on New Year's Eve before they go to bed.

This year Nicola cooked and sold over 200 Mince Pies at Zenrinkan, so everyone was able to try a taste of a British Christmas.
