Aldi Australia brings back iconic 90s treat in time for Christmas and it's just $6.99: 'I need ten of them now' Aldi announces Viennetta ice-cream cake dupe READ MORE: Aldi Australia's major travel announcement By Belinda Cleary For Daily Mail Australia Published: 23:35 GMT, 30 October 2024 | Updated: 23:41 GMT, 30 October 2024 e-mail 26 shares View comments Aldi Australia has triggered a wave of nostalgia and excitement among shoppers with its latest Christmas food range. The German retailer released a dupe of the much-loved Viennetta ice-cream cake on Thursday, as part of its biggest 'Christmas freezer range' ever.
Dubbed the 'Entertainer' the one litre ice-cream cake is just $6.99 and features ripples of vanilla flavoured ice cream layered with slivers of chocolate - just like the original treat in the 90s. The retail giant has also expanded on the original dessert, which many remember being the 'fanciest dessert of the time', by offering a second flavour.
The second version features hazelnut and chocolate flavoured ice-cream laced with layers of chocolate. It's then dusted with more chocolate and crushed hazelnuts. The Aldi Christmas range focuses on an easy - yet luxe - Christmas Day experience.
It has doubled in size this year - following feedback from shoppers last year who admitted they preferred serving up the pre-prepared frozen meals to their families for Christmas so they could enjoy their day. In fact, the retailer found up to 50 per cent of Australians were afte.
