Oh yes please, Bakewell Tarts, but not the real ones, I like the ones you get in supermarkets in packets with icing and a cherry on top … yum yum xx

Pain aux raisins “Or / and” Pastel de Nata the Portuguese Custard Tarts, they both have my attention when we go to Lidl. Other stores are available somehow some always end up in our basket

Yes they are a wonderful tasty treat @Long-John-Silver …. what I meant is they are not the same as the Wiki definition of a Bakewell Tart xx
I consider them Bakewell 2.sweet the ones with a layer of icing bath equally perfect. @Wurger

The only thing I liked about Christmas cake as a kid was the icing, wasn’t keen on the marzipan but put up with it just to get the icing! Now love the full cake and mince pies!

Aldi do some really lovely chocolate bars. We used to get those little bags of chocolate barrels that had alcoholic fillings, a bit like liqueurs. Haven’t seen them around in our Aldi for quite a while though

The M&S are great but these have more chocolate on them (however the M&S gave 8 in the pack compared to 6)
Is there a difference in price as they sound yummy and something enjoy over Christmas
The Marks and Spencer ones are £2.99 compared to Lidl at £2.49 - you get more from M&S but the Lidl ones have more chocolate
