Ginsters have a bit of a rep at the moemtn (and for quite a few years now) for being sort of the cream of the crop when it comes to pastried foods. I really like the slices they do, sucha s the Ham & Cheese slice, and the Peppered Steak slice, alothough the price usually makes me restrict myself to whenever they have an offer on them somewhere. The same goes for their Cornish Pasty, and the other day I managed to pick it up on offer for £1, whereas usually it would be closer to the £2 mark, depending on where you get it from. I was instantly impressed. I know that you can heat these up and they taste much nicer, but I tend to buy these sorts of products ...  Read the complete review

"I'm off to the garage to get a ginsters" as Alan Partridge used to say, and who can blame him? Whilst I notice that he prefers a Scotch Egg, there is a lot to be said for the west country originated goodness of a cornish pasty. The packaging is the first thing that draws you to a ginsters over its supermarket rivals, black, bold and pert with a real eye for design. The cardboard sleeve inside helps to keep the contents well pretected during transit.. which can only be a good thing as there's nothing worse than a smashed pasty!! Inside the black plastic outer layer you're in for a treat of flakey, crumbly pastry containing a peppery ...  Read the complete review

From little acorns big Oak trees grow! During the 1960's Ginster's was a small egg packing business, as time went on the company expanded and diversified and today employ over 700 people to manufacture their famous pies, pasties and sandwiches. I don't know about you but I enjoy a Cornish pasty hot or cold and the Ginster's pasties are a mighty undertaking, far more than a mere morsel! Sainsbury's have the large pasties on offer at the moment, a 227g pasty for £1. usually they are about 30p dearer than that. If you were feeling so inclined then you could offer to share one between two but I'm afraid the inclination just isn't there. Ginster's ...  Read the complete review

Ginsters make a wide range of 'snack' type foods for lunch on the go, and would typically retail for somwhere between £1-1.50, this pasty is usually around £1. This is quite good value for money, considering the amount that you actually get for one portion, over 200g is quite large and when I eat this with my normal lunch, I cannot eat all of it as its a bit bland, but also just too much! I believe that this is an example though of quantity not quality. The pasty sounds very tempting and original, boasting ingredients of fresh British beef, fresh potato, onion & swede, wrapped in light puff pastry, this however is not quite the case. Yes you do ...  Read the complete review
