Quirky Christmas Dessert
Aldi, the budget supermarket, is set to revolutionize Christmas dinner with its latest festive dessert – pigs in blanket-flavored ice cream. The unique treat was the winner of a TV competition, impressing judges on Channel 4's Aldi's Christmas Secrets.
A Unique Creation
The idea for the unusual flavor came from farmers Ian Buxton, 62, and his wife Lesley, 63, who own Yorvale farm and ice cream factory near York. After experimenting with various flavors like Brussels sprouts, bacon and chestnut, port-soaked cranberries, and even Christmas spiced carrot cake, they settled on the pigs in blanket flavor as the most festive and delicious.
An Unexpected Combination
The £2.49 tub of ice cream is described as "a smooth, savoury-sweet ice cream which is pork flavored with a salted smoked maple syrup." While it may sound unusual, Aldi is confident that the unique flavor will captivate taste buds and add a whimsical touch to Christmas celebrations.
A Game-Changer
This exciting collaboration with Aldi is a game-changer for the Buxtons. Their first-ever contract with the supermarket involves producing 25,000 tubs of pigs in blanket-flavored ice cream, which is a life-changing opportunity for the couple. They hope that their creation will bring joy and put a smile on everyone's face this holiday season.
