# Hybrid Cornish Pasties This Holiday Pasty is Filled With Both Mincemeat and Vanilla Custard By Alyson Wyers | Published 2015-11-14 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cornish-pasties References: [mashable](http://mashable.com/2015/11/13/worlds-first-mincemeat-pasty/) & [warrensbakery](http://warrensbakery.co.uk/) In what is apparently a world first, this variation on Cornish pasties combines both mincemeat and custard. Available at the Cornwall-based Warren's Bakery in the UK, which just happens to be the world's oldest Cornish pasty bakery, the puff pasty combines the best of both worlds, especially for indecisive folks. [Just in time for Christmas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/delice-de-france-winter-range), the snack is full of "specially selected [mincemeat and a vanilla custard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pistachio-whisky-mince-pies)." The glazed pasty is topped with a cinnamon and sugar blend, which adds sweetness as well as a crunchy texture. Prepared in the same way as their other [savory Cornish pasties](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ginsters-pockets), this edible experiment is sure to get Brits talking and is well worth trying if you are visiting the area. It will be available beginning November 15th. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.2/10 - Popularity: 28% | Activity: 31% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Hybrid Snacks:** Creating hybrid snacks by combining unexpected flavors and ingredients presents an opportunity for innovative culinary experiences. - **Indecisive Food Choices:** Catering to the indecisive consumer by offering food options that combine contrasting flavors can appeal to a broader range of tastes and preferences. - **Gourmet Holiday Treats:** Developing gourmet holiday treats with unique flavor combinations can offer a fresh and exciting twist to traditional festive foods. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food and Beverage:** The food and beverage industry can explore new product development opportunities by experimenting with unconventional flavor combinations. - **Hospitality:** Hotels, restaurants, and cafes can attract customers by incorporating hybrid snacks into their menus, providing a unique dining experience. - **Bakery:** Bakeries can leverage the trend of hybrid snacks to create innovative pastries and desserts, attracting adventurous food lovers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Spiced Cookie Custards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ambrosia-gingerbread-custard.md) - [Spooky Autumnal Snack Pasties](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haunted-hog-roast-pasty.md) - [Halloween-Themed Snack Pastries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spicy-sausage-red-pepper-pasty.md) - [Mince Pie Gelatos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mince-pie-gelato.md) - [Holiday Dessert-Flavored Cereals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mince-pieflavor-wheats.md) - [Hybrid Seasonal Pies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/camembert-pork-pie.md) - [Holiday-Themed Mince Pies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mr-kipling-mince-pie-range.md) - [Festive Sweet Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/festive-sweet-products-delice-de-france-launches-its-holiday-range.md) - [Crispy Cuban Apple Pastries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apple-pastelito.md)
