Morrisons has opted for a traditional selection this year, with a few twists on classics such as billionaire’s mince pies, inspired my millionaire’s shortbread.
‘As a proud supporter of the British farming industry, we work directly with farmers, growers and fishermen,’ Morrisons said of its range. ‘Sourcing the best ingredients for our Christmas products – from people we trust. Customers will also be able to find a range of products hand-prepared in stores by our butchers and bakers on Market Street.’
