Sponge cake with hazelnut and butter flavouring. Very pleasant - part of Lidl's Duc De Coeur (Duke's Heart) range of French influenced products. £2.49 for 320g. Difficult to price comparison this product as I don't think there is an equivalent in the UK. This is a French regional speciality from Creuse in central France. The recipe is old, but was only discovered recently, and is starting to become popular in France. Understandably popular, as this is a very pleasant cake. Easy eating and delicate, yet richly flavoured. It's good as an after meal desert, as part of breakfast, or with a cup of tea in the afternoon.
I can see us buying this again - though I suspect this is one of those dishes that Lidl may produce occasionally or just the once rather than offer regularly. Get it while you can! Will keep for around three months unopened, after which it is best consumed within a few days.
