"Where to buy pie crust in UK"
Love you, too
So I have my house to myself week after next so obviously there's going to be a messy session then. I want to tick some things of my messy bucket list. One of those being pies with crust.
However it's quite hard to get that style of crust in the UK,or at least I don't know of a pie crust seller in UK
Anyone know what stores sell pie crust

If you're looking for the Graham Cracker crusts though (which tend to be deeper and are often the ones you see in US pie vids) you don't often see them in supermarkets in the UK.
They're much more expensive but can be amazing. I've gotten mine from here before - https://www.americangrocer.co.uk/products/keebler-ready-crust-graham-pie-crust-170g

Holy &*$%...... £4.49 for a just a pie crust!.... thats 20x tins of Lidl baked beans or 16x jars of Sainsburys jam
Or better still.... 6x 1kg boxes of Lidl porridge!

It's also worth adding, although it may not be a concern for most, but the only difference is the lack of sugar in the savoury ones. When filled, they taste pretty much the same so you don't need to specifically look for sweet ones to fill with sweet stuff or vice versa.

They're very fragile too and by all accounts don't survive the journey in one piece. So, both expensive and risky.
A Sainsbury's near me was selling them about 5 years ago (for a week and then never stocked them again) and I used two or three in a thrown pie scene. The results were spectacular. They are perfect for this but only if you are able to pick them off the shelf yourself and ensure they don't get broken on the way home. They are deep but light and thin so they explode nicely on contact but don't hurt the model (too much).
Otherwise I've tended to use the widely available sweet/savoury variety - often £1 each. It's worth noting that the sweetness is not the only difference between the savoury and sweet case - the sweet cases are 'shorter' pastry and more crumbly and the savoury are a lot harder. Being on the receiving end, my then partner told me, was like being pelted with stones.
Bringing pleasure to literally tens of people!

I've been lucky with the ones I've gotten so far - the biggest difficulty is trying to get them out of the foil without damaging them.
If you feel like splurging on a session I think they're worth the extra cash for the reasons Trouso said. They are pricey though, so I understand going with the supermarket version
