Where's my fucking festive bake.

Two days after the alleged release date and 3 disappointed trip's to Greggs later, there still aren't any delicious festive bakes. It's only reason I like this season. There are no festive bakes. Have any of you managed to get hold of any festive bakes?

I've seen the frozen ones in Iceland if you don't mind heating them up yourself.

I'm not an employee of Greggs, nor do I possess the patience for such frivolity.

Had one earlier, there were 4 normal ones left and 3 vegan ones

Spoons are doing a festive pizza with turkey and stuffing toppings, maybe try that instead?

Sounds horrible!

Also, does it have fucking cranberry sauce on it, like every other festive special?

Dunno, the idea of stuffing on a pizza is enough to make me hurl, never mind cranberry sauce. Bet it even comes with a nice gravy boat.

Both Tayto's and Keogh's have Turkey and Stuffing flavour crisps for sale in "sharing bags". I'll eventually buy both.

Bake as a noun.  Apparently it's in the dictionary but what does that know.

Imagine the accent you like least going 'four bakes please' and you'll agree that this is the devil's handiwork.

Utter Shit

They have them in Brighton, I can post you one if you like.

Where's your fucking festive bake? Have you checked up your fucking festive arse?

Got bought a waitrose christmas turkey, stuffing & bacon sandwich yesterday. Very good, but would be improved by omitting the smear of pink stuff, which according to their site is cranberry and redcurrant chutney. Also features "turkey stock mayonnaise".

I'm going to find a fucking festive bake, I'm off into town. There's half a dozen outlets in the city centre. If I don't find a delicious festive bake there, I'll assume its all a big laughing joke at the expense of old Bigley.

I need my fucking festive bake.

(My festive arse is free of bakes)

That reminds me, there was an exquisite Ginsters (hear me out) Wensleydale and Cranberry sandwich last year.  Looking forward to my next garage distress purchase now.

Gingsters also make their own "festive slice". It belongs in the Deso Isle. Shit.

Entire Deso Aisle Thread now pls.

Tescos are doing Pig in Blankets flavoured peanuts. They're unusual.

I found a fucking festive bake. I did it lads. One week late, but I did it, I did it and it was fucking worth it.

festive CAKE,

festive LAKE

festive FAKE

festive WAKE even,


better than this so-called festive 'bake'

Fucking horrible, those festive bakes are. Filled with this Paxo and cranberry slurry. Got given a free one at the Greggs at work one time, after I casually enquired what they were like. Glad I didn't pay for it. 1/10 would not bang.

Everything I've seen this year has been "throw some cranberry sauce on it = festive version"

Like this one?

Ooooh... Get a load of the Guardian reader, lads!

Daddy up in heaven with the angels got his festive bake 😇🍲🙏😭

What does this guardian gimp know about owt. Fucking arsehole.

Not sure what to make of their luxury mince pie review article last week. Top rated was the Sainsbury's, and my experience has always been that their mince pies are always nowhere near as good as you'd have expected given it's supposed to a bit more up-(super)market.

Got one of these yesterday. Had high hopes for it so hope it isn't that bad.

That's funny you mention that because I'm just now warming up the last couple of ALDI luxo mince pies - they got the lowest score and they're very nice. So stuff the Guardian

The Tesco Finest are now only a quid if you've got a Clubcard and they're very good too. You have to warm them up tho
