A possible diet breaker, but very good!

Hello all, purely in the interest of research, blush I have been testing some new products from Lidl, namely their De Luxe Mini Desserts. They are indeed mini, but that is not a bad thing, as it means that there is possibly a bit less guilt factor!

There are 3 varieties available, namely, raspberry, passionately, and chocolate.

I wasn't impressed with the raspberry, more sweet than I expected.

However, the chocolate version, and the passionfruit ones are truly delicious!

They come in a little glass pot, which after washing could either be used as a rather basic shot glass, or for various other things.

Those pistachio and ginger ice creams are divine.

my fav in Lidl is the lemon ice dessert , but it doesn't come in a fancy glass dish !!

Diet breaker? What diet...? [blush} We don't go mad on puddings, but we do like cake!!! Bought eggs when I didn't need them at Aldi this week ... already had 12 ... quantity of butter sugar and flour - not to mention cocoa powder also needed 'using'. Result: 3 x chocolate fudge cakes. In my defence we gave one and half away ...

Methinks perhaps I should be posting on the comfort eating thread ... grin.

What a lovely idea, and 'mini' you say. Mmm, mmm, mmm.

We've tried these little puds this week Phoenix They are indeed delicious, especially the chocolate one. DH and I shared one each day, so didn't feel too guilty smile The little pots would be useful for tea lights etc.
