When Prosit is open, Aldi's is my go-to. Of course, the wide variety of Moser Roth chocolate. A great percentage of my expenses at Prosit include chocolate: cakes, ganache, pastry cream, icings, fillings and cookies. The best seller at Prosit is the Hunka Hunka Burnin' Luv Bundt, made with 100% Aldi's ingredients. What an intriguing tale you pen, Mary. I admire you. Danke Schoen! Wunderbar!

Janice, I love the idea of a cake made entirely with Aldi ingredients! Surely Karl and Theo are looking down on you smiling!! I love the Moser Roth Chocolate too. The packaging is so beautiful, how they wrap the individual bars -- it looks like the wrapping was designed by Gustav Klimt. I think I will have to go to Aldi tomorrow, because now I want some of that chocolate! Danke sehr for all the nice words, as always. Freundschaft und Liebe!

I didn't know it was of German origin. No wonder our German friend, who got our young grandson an Advent calender with chocolate nummies, got it from Aldi. She said it's the only place she will get them because it's real German chocolate. And we all know European chocolate is better than American chocolate. You mentioned the brothers were considered ghosts. Grandson's last name is Geist, German for ghost.

Amy, that is beautiful, the last name of Geist! Like Zeitgeist, and Heilige Geist! Aldi has so much great German chocolate. Also great Swiss, Austrian, French and Belgian chocolate too. It really is delicious. Next Christmas we should all got to Aldi as a group!
