Poundbakery is set to launch their Festive Pasty on Sunday 3rd December, but first they want to set the record straight…It’s a Pasty, not a Bake!

Poundbakery’s Festive Pasty will arrive in stores on 3rdDecember; however, they firstly want to clear something up. Whilst every country has it’s own variation: Empanadas in Spain, Curry Puffs in South East Asia and Pirog in Ukraine, Poundbakery class their range of savoury filled snacks as Pasties (not Bakes!) Determined to get the message across, they quite literally took to the skies of Liverpool to spread the word, with the Poundbakery logo lighting up the Liverpool skyline in a spectacular display. This showcased the fan favourite Festive Pasty, with a cheeky message about using the correct name.

One Staff member commented “Our customers and other staff have lots of different names for our products; especially the Traditional Pasty. Some people call it a humpback pasty, or a dinosaur pasty – but we always know what they mean. But our pasties are pasties – definitely not bakes!”

The Festive Pasty is extremely popular and customers have already been asking about it’s return. It includes chicken breast pieces, sage & onion stuffing and sweet cure bacon smothered in a rich, creamy sage & cranberry sauce, finished with a crumbed topping. YUM!

  • Jumbo Festive Pasty £1.60, 2 for £2.50
  • Mince Pies 4pk £1.50
