Aldi shoppers say Lotus Biscoff ice cream dupe is 'far better' than the real thing

One savvy Aldi customer shared details of an ice cream product stocked by the bargain giant that is a "copy" of a similar item made by Lotus — and other shoppers were quick to share their thoughts.

Biscuit company Lotus is known for its many Biscoff products — including ice cream sticks flavoured like the biscuits that are usually priced at around £4.

Aldi sells Gianni's Caramelised Biscuits Chocsticks in both milk and white chocolate varieties for less than £2, and one shopper picked up on the similarities.

Taking to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group, she wrote: "New to Aldi.. copy of Lotus Biscoff ice cream think they was £1.49".

Before long, almost 2,000 group members liked the post — with more than 2,300 leaving comments.

One said: "The milk ones are amazing been getting them since they came out never tried the white ones"

"I got the milk chocolate ones ate all 3 in 1 sitting too good," a second agreed.

Another commented: "They are delicious".

A fourth went even further, declaring: "Far better as well".

"I can confirm the white ones and milk choc ones are amazing," a fifth shared.

A sixth simply stated: "They are amazing".

"They look yummy," a seventh agreed.
