Some lucky shoppers could even get it for free with limited-edition coupons on the Lidl Plus app.

The chocolate sponge logs, which have a chocolate sauce centre, are dusted with sugar and topped with a mini chocolate flake.

They are found in the bakery and are individually portioned making them the perfect Christmas treat.

According to delighted shoppers, they do not disappoint.

On Facebook, one wrote: “These are the best yule logs I have ever had.

“Add some extra thick double cream absolutely amazing. All the family loved these.”

“Got these and they are lovely they had a lovely chocolate sauce in the middle,” a second wrote.

“The best cake ever made by a supermarket!” a third added.

Others praised the value for money saying they are “well worth their price.”

Some shoppers have even said that they are freezable meaning you can keep spreading some of the festive cheer into the new year.

Rivalling its bakery treat is the chain’s new festive chocolate dessert which arrived on shelves just days before Christmas.

As well as the traditional yule log and the bakery version, Lidl has also released a Deluxe Christmas dessert many think is inspired by the festive film The Polar Express.

Lidl’s Deluxe Christmas Express is a chocolate train-shaped dessert that is the perfect centrepiece for the big day or festive parties.

The green and yellow steam train is made from hard Belgian chocolate which is filled with chocolate mousse and salted caramel.

It has a chocolate brownie base and the train’s steam is made from marshmallow.

Shoppers have already raved about the pudding calling it the “best yet.”

The indulgent pudding is £9.99 or can be bought for just £6.99 with a Lidl Plus card and serves eight people.

Meanwhile, shoppers could be in with the chance of winning a free Christmas food shop with Lidl’s rival Aldi.

But, there are only 24 hours left to enter so you must be quick if you want to enter.
