Like many of you, we think Christmas really is the most magical time of the year, and nothing brings the season to life quite like amazing food. Whether you’re planning the works for a big family feast, a cosier festive lunch or a full-on Christmas party, this is the moment to go all out. But with supermarket shelves packed with new launches and limited-edition treats, it can be tricky to know what’s actually worth popping in your trolley. That’s where the Woman & Home Festive Food Awards come in. We’ve done the tasting (and the debating!) so you can shop with confidence and serve only the best this Christmas.
Over the past few months, hundreds of products have landed in our Test Kitchen for judging. Our food team, who between them have years of cooking, tasting and creating under their belts, sampled everything blind and prepared exactly as the makers intended. From melt-in-the-mouth mince pies to the ultimate pigs in blankets, every product had to earn its place on our winners list.
