Aside from its bargain prices and unpredictable central aisle, Lidl<\/a> is well-known for one thing: its in-store bakery.<\/p>\n

The retailer\u2019s<\/a> bakery has a cult following and several impressive accolades under its belt, including being crowned the nation\u2019s favourite<\/a> in 2024.<\/p>\n

Shoppers go wild over the All Butter Croissant<\/a>, with 122 of them selling every single minute. However, a new item just launched and if reactions are anything to go by, it might be a serious rival for the classic pastry.<\/p>\n

Ahead of Easter<\/a>, Lidl has launched Mini Egg Brownies in the bakery<\/a>, which cost just 89p each. <\/p>\n

The new item features a brownie base, and appears to have a layer of chocolate<\/a> on top which is covered in pieces of colourful crushed Mini Eggs.<\/a><\/p>\n

Lidl customers have been raving about the sweet treat<\/a>, with some hailing it the \u2018best brownie ever\u2019 in response to a post by New Foods UK<\/a> on Facebook.<\/p>\n

Tyanna Riddiford said: \u2018These are absolutely amazing!!!\u2019 As Helen Tyndall wrote: \u2018Had one yesterday, best brownie EVER.\u2019<\/p>\n

Emma Owen was stunned, saying: \u2018I didn\u2019t think they could get much better.\u2019 <\/p>\n

And Tiffany Hawkings proclaimed: \u2018They are delicious as I just had one.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018Okay, I\u2019m a Lidl girlie now,\u2019 joked Micha McGhee, while a few others claimed they \u2018needed\u2019 to go to Lidl instantly.<\/p>\n

There was one complaint that was made about the brownies, however, and it was all to do with their size. One shopper said they\u2019d had to buy four, similarly Michelle Clark admitted: \u2018They were nice but sooooo small!\u2019 <\/p>\n
