With the arrival of spring and the pending Easter celebrations, Lidl Ireland is inviting you to get creative with their quality Easter products at eggs-traordinary low prices and prepare your very own Easter-themed afternoon tea at home. From bunny-themed mini cupcakes and traditional Victoria sponge to the irresistible aroma of hot cross buns, Lidl Ireland has everything you need to host a tea-riffic afternoon this Easter.
When it comes to the afternoon tea platter, some like to begin with finger sandwiches and mini savoury delights before moving on to the main event - the sweet treats! To add to the seasonal delight, begin by adding a classic Easter-time favourite, Deluxe Hot Cross Buns (RRP €1.99), warm, lightly spiced with orange soaked fruit and finished with a drop of honey, the aroma will be too hard to resist.
Complement the platter with buttery Deluxe Rocky Road Slices (RRP €2.49), and a traditional Victoria Sponge with Raspberry Jam and Buttercream Filling (RRP €3.49) or Coffee & Walnut Cake with Coffee Buttercream Frosting (RRP €3.49) - both timeless treats that promise layers of light, fluffy perfection.
Infuse your spread with a fruity twist with a delightful Fruit Tea Loaf (RRP €2.19), bringing a burst of flavour to your creation. Add a sprinkle of fun to your display with Lidl’s Mini Easter Themed Cupcakes (RRP €2.49), each a bite-sized work of art that adds a seasonal touch to your table. And for the grand finale, let Lidl's Deluxe Sticky Toffee Pudding (RRP €3.15) steal the spotlight with its indulgent golden toffee sauce and sweet, buttery flavour.
Whether you opt for your finest China teacups or embrace the eclectic charm of mix-and-match mugs, raise a toast to your Easter afternoon tea with an award-winning cuppa. Lidl’s award-winning tea range can be enjoyed to your liking with three delicious blends including Fallon’s Gold Blend (RRP €1.49), Fallon’s Master Blend (RRP €1.55) and the classic Fallon’s Original Blend (RRP €2.45).
Lastly, if you prefer your afternoon tea with bubbles, Lidl has options to suit all budgets with the Alexo Prosecco Frizzante Italy (RRP from €6.51) or the elegant Sparkling Rosé from Germany with notes of soft red fruits (RRP from €24.99). For a sweeter option, the Riesling Mosel from Germany (RRP €12.99) is the perfect accompaniment.
