Pukka Chicken Vindaloo Pie is the Brand's Hottest Pie to Date

— April 14, 2026 — Lifestyle
Pukka is cranking up the heat this spring with the release of its new Chicken Vindaloo Pie.

According to the brand, the new Chicken Vindaloo Pie is Pukka's hottest pie yet. The new pie features Pukka's signature flaky puff pastry case, filled with pieces of tender chicken, red pepper, and onion in an extra spicy vindaloo curry sauce. The new pie was created in time for the World Cup, giving fans a tasty game day snack option, whether they're at home or in the stands. As Isaac Fisher, Pukka's CEO, explains, "Pukka and football go hand in hand, so there was no better time to launch this new pie as we head into a huge summer of international football, particularly when England fans relate Vindaloo so closely to the game."

The limited-edition Chicken Vindaloo Pie is available now.
