Aldi has delighted hot chocolate fans with the launch of its new Melting Snowmen.

Super cute and delicious to boot, the snowmen come in a choice of either white or milk chocolate.

All you have to do is add the snowmen to some warm milk and watch the magic happen.

Launching the duo, Aldi predicted that hot chocolate fans would have a “meltdown” when they spotted them in store.

And, going on the early buzz on Instagram, Aldi isn’t wrong.
