Aldi shoppers rave about ultimate dessert-hack

The Aldi group lit up faster than a kid in a candy store with the revelation that this dessert has hit the shelves once more.

One Aussie shared her top-secret upgrade: “I make as per pack then once cooked I get a few pieces of caramel chocolate and push them into the cooked cake while it’s hot. Wait a few mins to cool a little then top with a dollop of cream. You’re welcome.” Sounds heavenly, right?

TikToker Clayton Jay shared his hack of adding Misty's Brandy Salted Caramel sauce, almond milk and Ben and Jerry's S'wich Up ice cream to the Sticky Date Brownie flavour or the Cake in a Mug.

And the taste? "Absolutely delicious!" says Jay.

Another fan chimed in with the ultimate addition: “Scoop of ice cream on top and a perfect winter treat”. Because who doesn’t love a little extra indulgence?

A hit with the whole family

And it’s not just the grown-ups who are thrilled. The little ones are loving them too!

One group member shared: “My grandkids just love the fact they can cook their own cake. Like everything else at Aldi, here one day gone the next".

The cake’s comeback has even reached the “please-god-let-there-be-some-left” level of excitement.
