Everyone has their favourite chocolates come Christmas time - whether it be a tin of Quality Street, Roses, Celebrations or perhaps a posher selection box. But as far as I'm concerned, nothing can beat Guylian's chocolate praline seashells, which have been a staple in my household for decades.
I didn't think anything could come close to achieving their praline perfection - until I noticed that Aldi are doing a very convincing-looking dupe of the seashell confectionery in their stores. For what is pretty much HALF the price that you are likely to pay for the original Guylian version.
Guylian Seashells are available at most major supermarkets - with an RRP of £5.50 on the standard 250g pack at Tesco, although many stores have offers on at the moment - including reduced to £4 at Sainsbury's and Morrisons this week. Aldi's Moser Roth Belgian chocolate seashells in a 250g pack are priced at £2.69 - less than half the price of the Guylian standard price.
