Day 5: 12 Days of Recipes 2017 - Delicious Preserves & Mincemeat Tarts

December 08, 2017

Day 5: 12 Days of Recipes 2017 - Delicious Preserves & Mincemeat Tarts

Day 5: Gift & Stocking Stuffer Ideas

Mackays marmalades, preserves and curds are the absolute perfect stocking stuffer for the breakfast lover on your gift list. They are a favourite year 'round, but we love introducing people to the Orange with Champagne marmalade or the Dundee Orange marmalade (both taste great in our feature recipe below) at Christmas time.

Mackays preserves are produced using traditional methods, in copper open pans. They use small batch cooking methods to create products with a home made taste. Founded in 1938 Mission Bringing great tasting marmalade back to the breakfast table! Their soft fruits are sourced from the best local Scottish fruit farms and our bitter marmalade oranges come from the famous Seville region in Spain. 

Pick up a jar or two for everyone on your list (and be sure to score some for yourself for Christmas morning!)
