New Baileys flavour treats appear on shelves of three bargain supermarkets – but shoppers are divided
Fans of sweet treats are swarming to three bargain shops to get a fresh assortment of Baileys desserts.
This Christmas, Baileys Eclairs and Baileys Indulgent Biscuits have both been observed on store shelves.
The creamy confections have been supplied by Aldi and Home Bargains, and astute buyers were thrilled to discover them in Iceland as well.
Many individuals were raving over the creamy-flavored discovery on the Iceland website’s comment area.
One person commented: “Wow, that’s really good.
“You can taste the Baileys in the very generous cream, will definitely buy again.”
An other comment said, “Very nice, lots of Baileys in a small eclair.”
According to a third user, “Delicious, just the right amount of Baileys cream.”
But not everybody was impressed.
“Happy I didn’t pay full price for them,” one person wrote.
“I wont be buying any for myself for Christmas and will have to decide whether I still give them as gifts or give them to the local church for Christmas raffle – maybe with a very sweet warning attached.”
Another voiced dissatisfaction, saying: “It was smaller than anticipated and had an odd aftertaste.

“They don’t taste like proper Baileys, more like a cheap imitation.”
Customers are nonetheless eager to taste the new Baileys line in spite of the conflicting assessments.
The Baileys Indulgent Biscuits are said to be buttery without being overbearing and to have a faint liqueur undertone.
These Baileys Milk Chocolate Creams are made with a combination of milk chocolate and a creamy whisky filling.
The little eclairs are made with light pastry, a smooth chocolate coating, and a creamy Baileys-flavored filling.
These come frozen in a 12-piece bag, and before eating, the directions advise defrosting them for half an hour.
How else can I save money on Baileys?
There are some clever ways to avoid overspending on Baileys this holiday season if you’re a sucker for that creamy Irish whiskey liqueur.
One option if you want to save money on gifts is a Baileys dupe, which has been called “almost perfect.”
For just 82p per 100ml, you can buy the 70cl Ballycastle cream liqueur for 5.79 if you’re willing to part with the litre bottle.
On Facebook, customers have praised the product as “gorgeous” and “lush”.
Additionally, the Ballycastle product is available in a variety of flavors, including the most recent addition, a decadent Milk Chocolate Clementine version that costs $7.49.
This might save you a staggering 16.21 on a bottle of Baileys if you want to try something different.
You could almost get four bottles of the Ballycastle for the price of one Baileys bottle from Morrisons or Asda, which is $22.00.

But bear in mind that the alcohol by volume (ABV) of Bailey’s is 16 percent, while that of Ballycastle is 12 percent.
Other retailers like Sainsbury’s, Tesco, Morrison’s, Asda, Lidl, and M&S also sell imitations of Baileys.
