HOME bargains are living up to their name with a dupe of an elegant Polish chocolate bar, which is 92% cheaper than the original. 

The delectable chocolate straws, stuffed full of hazelnut cream, are being snagged for literal pennies, 15 to be exact, at Home Bargains.

The original Tago rolls cost £1.99, and one user commented that buying a similar product in a Cyprus airport can cost a whopping seven euros. 

Chocoholics show no sign of slowing down after Easter as they rave about the “creamy hazelnut” filling, which “puts the Nutella into the crispy treat.”

One raved: “They taste beautiful, they’re dangerous, I can’t stop eating them.”

Another agreed, exclaiming: “Oh my go, they are delicious, these will not last long, hazelnut is my kryptonite.”

One TikTok food reviewer, whose discerning taste buds command the respect of nearly 70k followers, proclaimed: “These are absolutely delicious and an absolute bargain!

“That creamy filling is to die for.

“I literally drove back to the store, 15 minutes away, to grab more before they went.”

Creamy, creamy, creamy- the word was repeated by almost every reviewer. 

Tariq Wright pointed out that you can bulk buy, as they have a shelf life of nine months, although it is doubtful that many will last that long. 

But many users had already had to restock up, so good luck making them last that long.

Choccy lovers’ funky uses of the crunchy treats range from popping them into ice cream, milkshake, and even smashing them up into cheesecake bases.
