Festive Snacks for the Whole Family

The Christmas season is finally upon us- Christmas puddings are appearing in shops and Kevin the Carrot has made his long-awaited return! What’s better than decorating the tree, revelling in family chaos and, most importantly, the festive snacks that are always out on the table for the whole family to enjoy! 

We have put together some of our best snack products with a festive twinkle to give you some great, tasty ideas throughout the Christmas season. 

Winner, winner, chicken dinner 

If it feels a little too early for Christmas dinner, but you still fancy something that’s going to hit the spot, swap the turkey for chicken with one of our delicious Piri-Piri Chicken Slices.  

Warm up the whole family after a crisp winter walk by popping these slices in the microwave. To make your snack a little more Christmassy, whip up some Spiced Cranberry Sauce and dunk your slice in to really get the taste bud festivities going.  

Lighting up the table  

The best way to get into the Christmas cheer is to visit the best Christmas displays in the UK. After visiting your favourite illuminations this year, get back indoors and make your own displays on the table. Pair our 12 Cocktail Sausages Rolls with a sparking platter of Christmas accompaniments. Add bacon and brie to your spread for that extra festive feel. Why not try making your own mulled wine to warm your cockles? Treat the whole family to this non-alcoholic mulled wine or make some just for grown-ups with alcoholic mulled wine. 

Never failing to impress year after year, here is the line-up of the best displays in the UK: 

• Kew Gardens, London 

Known for its magical winter trails, and mesmerising fire gardens, this is a spectacular event for the whole family to enjoy. While the little ones meet Father Christmas, adults can enjoy the displays- especially when it gets darker, and lights reflect off the water.

• Lightopia Festival at Heaton Park, Manchester 

Another great display this Christmas is at Manchester’s, Heaton Park. This year they have left everyone on a cliff hanger with new displays! Immersive installations and wonderful light displays will leave the whole family left in awe.

• Blenheim Palace, Oxfordshire  

Last but not least, this display is kicking off with a sweet tooth. Displays include giant gingerbread men and a ‘kingdom of sweets’ for kids to run wild. This is the perfect show for the family, offering a fantastic winter wonderland for all.

Food on the move  

Christmas involves a lot of travelling and whether you’re heading to a nearby hill for sledging or in the car visiting family, keeping everyone’s energy levels up and filling bellies is very important. Grab a quick bite to satisfy everyone taste buds with our Cheese and Onion Roll. Although it might be tricky to dunk in cranberry sauce on the move, you can always take along some homemade Gingerbread Men and Candy Canes for dessert to add a sprinkle of festivity to your travels.
