For this year's Christmas season, Aldi is introducing a Specially Selected Chocolate & Praline Dome that promises to appeal to those who love chocolate and hazelnut confections. The oversized dessert takes the form of a multi-layered treat that is said to contain a milk chocolate and hazelnut mousse filling, plus milk chocolate feuilletine and a cocoa sponge cake, all within a hard chocolate and hazelnut shell.
When it comes to serving the show-stopping holiday treat, Aldi recommends that the limited-edition Specially Selected Chocolate & Praline Dome should be left for about an hour so that it can settle to room temperature after being in the freezer. Fortunately for those who can't wait for Christmas, Aldi is introducing the treat at the end of October.
