Disappointingly small and rock hard.
Even though the pastry’s supposedly made with butter, I couldn't taste it; the pastry should be light, but it was hard, unyielding and basically, dreadful. Even the mince inside them was hard. Poor quality and flavourless. These won’t be on my shopping list again.
And these are supposed to be eccles cakes.
Tiny poor quality cakes. Its time yourr buyer went to Specsavers
Not good.
Eccles cakes were born in Church St Eccles, at the top, and should have stayed there. They taste of Ardwick Manchester too. We used to buy these Eccles cakes lose in a brown paper bag... If the baker wants the proper recipe its inside the Crescent Museum Salford...
Eccles Cakes - These are NOT.
These are fruity, and that's about as much as can be said. Eccles Cakes these are NOT! They are tiny - about 2 inches across and half an inch deep - and they are more like currant pasty than anything else. Eccles Cakes should be light and fluffy with flaky pastry coated in a drizzle glaze of sugar and should contain a rich buttery blend of currants and possibly sultanas. These are an insult to Lancashiire and the town of Eccles! Sack the baker who came up with these, Tesco.
they were alright nothing to go mad about

Nice but expensive
Very nice but have quickly become very expensive.
Not a good product anymore
They are smaller than they used to be and they are not finished off as good ie pastry is not moulded around bottom of cake and is a lot thicker than it used to be like there is no finess to them anymore
Disappointing
These are absolutely tiny! About 1/4 the size of what you would get from a proper bakery. The pastry was terrible, somehow dry and greasy at the same time, and the fruit inside mushed up beyond recognition.
very let down so small for the money .bit dry . f

An un-naturally hairy cake
Normally very nice, and very moorish, but won’t be buying them again after my husband in almost the last bite found a really long hair, he more or less had to get it out from between his teeth. Yuck Yuck Yuck
