Wilfreds Pies TSV 05/03/24
Do they make different pies for demonstration? Wouldn't that be seriously wrong, if not illegal?But in real life, you won't get what the show in the presentation as had been seen many times.
Yes, give them a grandad name Wilfred, visions of an elderly man in flat cap who has a garden shed grows his own veg. He also enjoys making pies. This could be the next Disney film
I've not had Wilf's but have had other makes from QVC and have never had a problem with them. I used to think they were pricey and wouldn't pay full price, but at this price they are the same as supermarket's finest range so I don't think that's too bad. I might have given them a try but I don't have space in my freezer - I must get stuff used up out of there firstThey sound nice but a bit pricey. Anyone had Wilf's pies before?

Many times commented that the ones shown full of meat etc. One's people got only half the meat and not tasty at all. I will say they make sure the ones brought to demo are the best ones from that batch.Do they make different pies for demonstration? Wouldn't that be seriously wrong, if not illegal?
That's a shame.I’ve bought Wilfred’s pies direct from them as they make them not far away from me. Very disappointed with them, very salty, gristly meat and pastry a bit stodgy.
I was a bit disappointed to see the very large company Wilf owns because I felt sure it was a small, family concern dedicated to producing handmade, small kitchen type pies. How wrong I was! Stocking capped workers stirring huge vats of stew and a parking lot filled with delivery lorries. Even though the presenter said there were a limited amount of pies that could be made at one time, it looked doubtful. Thousands of pies, is more likely.Nothing special and overpriced avoid

Wow that left me confused!I watched the TSV last night with Wilfred’s pies, I was about to place an order when Wilfred said there is ENGLISH mustard in our steak pies, it goes against the grain to use ENGLiSH Mustard !! ask why don’t they use WELSH mustard? It’s because it doesn’t exist. I was just about to order 3 boxes to give to family before he said that. Why why why are the Welsh and Scottish people so nasty about English people? they are all the same, they can’t help themselves, is it jealousy??? after I read some comments about the WELSH Pies and how some people said they are not all as you see on QVC! you will receive less filled pies. So pleased I didn’t order them.
You say this because we didn't state there is Welsh mustard?The Welsh Food Company
