Hi All,
As the title says what is the best Christmas cake in the supermarkets?
I have done my own previous years but is only me that eats it. I only eat a bit at a time and end throwing them up because I end up fed up of them.
So what is your recommendation, bonus points if they do a mini version

I think if you wait a while- I know some Christmas things are in the shops, you can get a better idea of what is on offer. Then look out for reviews; there are always lots of reviews of Christmas goods by national press and magazines, eg Good Housekeeping. I have actually bought a cake from Sainsbury's - a round fruit cake, as my mil always asks me to get one every year, and I often have difficulty getting my hands on one. Would be interesting to look at this thread later and maybe see a few reviews in maybe November.

Asda extra special brandy-soaked fruit cake (comes in a mini version too!)

I really rate the little top iced rectangle cakes from Aldi. We don't buy a big cake but get through at least 4 or 5 of those each year between us and visitors dropping in for a cuppa

I like the Aldi Christmas cake bars too.

I actually saw some Christmas food today in our aldi. I will check the cake bar next time I pop in.
I'm planning a trip to ikea on my birthday at the end of October and there is an asda nearby I will look for the mini fruit cake too

I’d agree with previous posts about the Aldi cake bar ones, they’re gorgeous.
