As well as producing sets of party pies—also known as bite-sized meat pie snacks—made with Australian beef and gravy, Patties now offers a limited-edition 'Cheese Burger Flavoured Party Pies' variety.
The meat snacks inspired by sliders feature 18% beef, cheese sauce and tomato sauce, among other ingredients, offering a novel new way for consumers to experience the familiar flavors of a burger in a fully encased golden pastry wrapper. The 12-piece boxed set is touted as a food mashup and is one that will appeal to those who enjoy rediscovering their favorite food products in entirely new forms.
Patties' snack-like Cheese Burger Flavoured Party Pies offer a fun departure from many of the beef-based savory dinner pies on the market that only offer upscale ingredient pairings.
