Aldi, known for its affordability, stocks an array of baked goods despite lacking an in-store bakery. While their baked items, such as the pains au chocolat, are economically priced, they often fall short in quality. An article recounts a taste test of various items, illustrating a mixed experience with their baked goods. Although some treats are reasonably enjoyable, others, like the pains au chocolat, are criticized for their use of inferior ingredients and lack of traditional preparation, reminding consumers of the trade-off between cost and quality.
Aldi may not be top of mind when it comes to the best stores for baked goods, seeing as how it doesn't have an in-store bakery.
The discount grocer used a cheap brioche roll instead of the delicate, flakily layered pastry for the pains au chocolat.
