Shoppers are in a frenzy over Iceland's latest dupe range, which offers a wallet-friendly alternative to a beloved teatime classic. Iceland's Crispy Pancakes have been hailed as "just as good as the originals" by enthusiastic customers.
Old-School Classic Revived
The original brand, Findus Crispy Pancakes, had been a staple since 1958 and enjoyed peak popularity in the 70s and 80s. However, after being acquired by BirdsEye, the fillings were changed and the price increased by 75p. BirdsEye claimed to use "premium" ingredients for the new-style pancakes, which now come in mozzarella, tomato and mozzarella, and ham and mozzarella flavors.
Customers Demand More
Despite the changes, customers were left unsatisfied, with many claiming that the BirdsEye version simply didn't compare to the original. But now, thanks to Iceland, shoppers can enjoy the nostalgic taste of the fan-favorite at a fraction of the price.
A Bargain for Pancake Lovers
Iceland's own brand dupe of Crispy Pancakes is available for just £1, while the BirdsEye version is priced at £2.20. This significant price difference has attracted the attention of budget-conscious shoppers, who have been raving about the product on social media.
Shoppers Go Crazy
One savvy saver took to Facebook to share the good news, and the post quickly garnered positive responses. Sarah Grubb described the product as "lovely" and "just as good as the original," while Alexi Brooks simply stated, "Absolutely love these." Shelley Blair Shell went even further, proclaiming that Iceland's version is "nicer than Findus."
More Dupe Delights
Iceland has been on a roll with its dupe offerings, recently introducing its Snacksters range, which includes McDonald's knockoffs. Shoppers can enjoy an Iceland Chicken Stack for just £1.80, nearly 70% cheaper than the original Chicken Big Mac. Additionally, the Iceland 20 chicken nuggets are priced at £3.50, a savings of £2.10 compared to McDonald's 20 chicken nuggets.
Not stopping there, Iceland unveiled a range of Nando's dupes last year, featuring peri peri chicken breasts, wings, and thighs, all for £4. During a special offer, customers could buy three packs for £10.
It seems Iceland's dupe range has struck a chord with shoppers, offering them a taste of their favorite treats at a fraction of the cost. These wallet-friendly options are proving to be a hit in the UK market, providing an affordable alternative to well-loved brands.
