The great shortbread with a not over the top pistachio flavor.
Not overly seasoned with the Curry evenly distributed throughout the shredded chicken. The usual great crust for the pie shell. I just buttered the pie but, you can always add more heat with some simmer sauce.
Great flavor - large portion - fried up nicely for our traditional English breakfast. Will definitely buy again.
After arriving and calling to tell them I was there to pick up my order it was delivered to me in about three minutes.
All Ackroyd’s shortbread are the best, but Birthday Cake Shortbread are just the best to give on someone’s birthday
These pies were so fresh and delicious. Meaty and really tasty. Would buy again and again
Excellent quality and really hood flavor - will definitely buy again!
Deliciousness in every bite!
Summer is the time for Devon Cream Tea. Devon clotted cream with delicious Golden Raisin Scones topped wiht Strawberry Jam. Ackroyds is the place to get the food. Simple to prepare. Slice the scones in half spread the cream wiht a little dent in the center for a spoonful of strawberry. All 36 halves were gone in minutes. My friends loved them. Suggest you need to to go buy, either curbside or home delivery and enjoy a fantastic afternoon and a Devon Cream Tea.
PS Ackroyds have a superb array of baked goods made here in Detroit.
Perfect! Simply perfect! Get'em all nice and warm in the oven and enjoy. I also got the clotted cream and strawberry preserves because... why WOULDN'T I? LOL
Delicious as expected… but too large… please bring back the original recipe Ferns!!!!
Hello, Bakewell Tarts are made in 3' tart shells. Fern Cakes were made in tart shells that measured about 3' also. Months ago, we were using larger tart shells from a different supplier, but the current ones are as close to the original size that we can find.
'The original recipe Ferns,' cannot be brought back because they go against our commitment to improvement. The original recipe relied on margarine (which we no longer use), boxed cake mix (which we no longer use), and industrially made jam (we source our jam from a small farm in LeRoy, MI, now). Using almonds instead of the old fern design is traditional since fern cakes are simply reimagined Bakewell tarts.
In order to make the fern cakes to the specifications you're requesting, we would not only need to invest in ingredients we no longer use, but also a tart shell press that was about $30,000 the last time we checked. We simply do not sell enough tarts to justify that kind of investment.
Easy to prepare & even easier to eat. Great side dish!
The chicken curry pies are my favorite. The flavor is exactly like curry from the UK which is nostalgic for me. The crust on all the pies is the perfect texture and flavor.
Love everything that I get from Ackroyds. My dad would bring it home back in the early 80's. I tried to order a couple of times a year when I'm in town
Been going here for years. This time bought the meat pies and sausage rolls. So good as always. P.S. bring back the bridies. They were my all time favourite
Thanks for the review! I see you order the beef sausage rolls, which have the exact same filling the Bridies used to have. Making Bridies would be redundant now since the beef sausages rolls are essentially Bridies and the puff pastry is exactly the same. Glad you enjoyed your food!
Great treat for breakfast. Well made and carefully packaged. Browned up in pan without overcooking. Made my own "Steak McMuffin" for breakfast. Add your favorite spices for personal preferences.
