I'm totally addicted to these! They're usually 25p each but currently they're only 19p which is too cheap in my opinion.
They're very tasty and a cheap way to make a very nice sandwich sub.

What has HUKD come to when the same price this baguette has been at for the last 2 years - 19p - is hailed as some kind of deal or bargain? :disappointed:
True, it was 25p in the dim & distant past - but 19p is the everyday price now.
Whatever next - I guess somebody could do the 4 pint milk thing 89p @ Asda?

I only eat bread from hermetically sealed laboratories staffed by blind virgins (so my bread hasn't been eyeballed).

I never buy lidl loose bread or cookies because theyve been pawed by loads of people before you get to them. They would be cleaner if they fell onto the floor and rolled under the cabinet.

If left unused for a day or two and they feel abit tough, put them in microwave for literally 7-10 seconds to soften :wink:

Really like these but be careful - If your Lidl is like ours you see people touching them all the time and putting them back. People seem as though they can't help touching them with their hands - and the children too. Best to get them when they are brought straight out of the oven.

Once saw a guy in our Lidl take a bite out of one of the bakery doughnuts then put it back :confused:

In Lidl in Spain I noticed all the fresh bakery goods were in cage-like displays with only enough room to pass tongs through, grasp the item and then drop through into a bag (hope that made sense!) It was impossible for anyone to handle the items.

In Portugal they have a system where all the rolls and so on are behind glass,in the glass is a hole where a pair of fixed tongs are,you have to move the rolls with the tongs to the side where there is a curtain of metal poles which only go one way,so the rolls can be passed out,but hands can't get in.So in simple terms there is no way anyone can touch any of the fresh bakery goods.
Downside is you look like a prat for 5 minutes trying to figure out what you are meant to do,we gave up and waited for someone else to come along so we could watch lol

These are tasty. Last time I bought these I put half of it in the freezer on day of purchase and ate the other half. Came back to the other half another day left it out to defrost for a few hours and it was near to being soft. Still tasted nice.

Actually they're made by a 3rd party manufacturer in a factory. They part-bake the products and then they're blast frozen. They're boxed and sent to storage and then shipped to store. The store will then re-bake them in store from frozen which is how they get the "baked in store" name.

Absolutely same as all frozen food!
I find it very misleading, much prefer to go to our local bakery as I know it is fresh from the scratch.
Recently I bought some non-stick pot from Sainsburys with made in the UK stick on it. Later found the supplier only assembles the handle and pot together in Yorkshire. Actual product is made in China.

In Germnany they have this, but a scoop as oppose to tongs.
Cold. They're always 19p but are so dense, they're like bricks.

Majority of supermarkets only bake-off in store, the few products they make in store are usually the extremely simple tin breads.

Once I saw the lady sneezing as she was putting the bread out of the oven and she had the tissue in the other hand handling the bread with no problems.
a spit or saliva from people with health problems is also good from time to time, it helps for the immune system to get stronger the doctor said. I would have taken that if I were you

These are really slim and tiny in comparison to Tesco which do 4 proper half sized baguettes for £1
_hukdealer_
1 Aug 16#45
I used to buy 4 for a pound but my local tesco stoped this offer and now they cost 50 pence each.
Some Lidls across London still have them for 25 pence, some 19. Store specific!

I can only speak for one supermarket but others should be the same. The one I work in has white, wholemeal, granary, seeded and two in one tin from scratch. All baguettes from scratch, bloomers from scratch. White, wholemeal, granary, seeded, crusty, hot x and teacake buns from scratch. Pancakes, loaf cakes, meringues and macaroons from scratch.

I work in NPD designing the products made for the supermarkets. Speciality artisan breads aren't made in store, the majority of Sainsbury's giraffe range along with ASDA's tiger range is bake-off only. Most supermarkets are looking to pull instore fresh lines due to cost and the inability for the instore teams to produce consistency from store to store.

Curious then that a company like Lidl doesn't choose to have the same system in the UK. Maybe they think we're not as fussy as others!

I heard that Lidl buy the bread in from Scandanavia and bake it instore. Can't be very cost effective that.

They're the best. This is a contraction of 'They are the best' with the letter 'a' shown as being omitted by the use of a comma. You now have no excuse for ever getting this wrong again. You're welcome!

These are fantastic for panninis....I just bought a pannini maker ( bargain in Lidl a few weeks ago) and got these at the same time to try them out- I figured if I made a mess of them I'd not spent a lot of money on them - if you're using them for panninis you get a good 2-3 days to use them...the whole of Lidl's bakery range is fantastic,and very reasonable -my personal favourite is the Cinnamon Swirls -to die for!!

I get the sense some products are frozen and defrosted in store to sell, hence the "this product is not suitable for freezing" labels.

No, however a large majority of stores only bake off and will continue to move from making products in store to just bake off.

Pretty much, it's just baked from frozen in store which is how they can claim it's baked in store (not made though!).
