Dessert dips are rising in popularity as people crave fun, shareable treats that satisfy their sweet tooth while offering a playful alternative to traditional savory snacks, prompting Aldi to launch Cheesecake Dips in two limited-time varieties: Salted Caramel and Turtle.
Sour cream is the first ingredient in these dessert-inspired dairy dips, followed by cream cheese. Used most often in savory dips and spreads, sour cream and cream cheese take on a surprising new role in these dessert dips, yet still deliver the subtle tang that cheesecake is known for. The Turtle Cheesecake variety builds on this rich and indulgent base with chocolate-flavored pieces and pecans, and naturally pairs well with everything from pieces of fruit and pretzels to graham crackers.
