It was fashionable at Christmastime to bake a mince pie in the form of a manger topped with an image of the Christ Child fashioned from dough, for the spices and sweetmeats were held as symbols of the Magi's gifts.

Our family business, now in its fourth generation, carries on the tradition of baking biscuits with many of the same recipes created by our great grandmother, Annie Wild, over 100 years ago.Ayto, John (1990), The Glutton's Glossary: a Dictionary of Food and Drink Terms, Routledge, ISBN 0-415-02647-4 Ho!
