Comparison between Lidl and Aldi Belgian chocolate seashells

Anyone who knows their chocolate seashells (think Guylian) knows that Lidl ones are just as good and more than half the price. I had a distant memory of trying Aldi ones and not being as impressed with them. However, in the interests of research, I decided I needed to answer this question once and for all - Are They The Same? 

Aldi ones are on the left, Lidl on the right. 

Mmmm, breathe in the smell....

The Aldi ones seem to be smaller per chocolate, and slightly different shapes. 

For the Test, I sampled the seahorse from each box. Aldi tail curls inwards, Lidl one curls outwards.

I only ever get Guylian ones if someone else buys them for me as a present, but I'm under the impression that the Lidl ones are equivalent sizes and shapes to Guylian.

Checking the ingredients list on the backs, Lidl list 7 different ingredients, whereas Aldi list 11. They also have a lower % of hazelnuts (21% vs 23%) and theirs are not listed as 'roasted' unlike Lidl. 

Taste: 

Aldi had much thicker chocolate, and less of the hazelnut praline. It had a sweeter much more vanilla flavour. 

Lidl not so much chocolate to interfere with the more intense praline flavour. 

WINNER: Lidl. Praline-tastic.
