Update: I have confirmed this is (not) real - sorry. Dalek Bread: a dalek made of pull apart garlic bread. 🤖🍞

They did a good job of fooling me tho…product page, several videos, people hunting for it in stores….

It looks like home bakers have tried their hand at making dalek bread over the years, too!

Ha! Ha!
The dalek is what I called my first attempt at making bread from scratch. It was much more like the mutated inside of the dalek than this tasty looking garlic bread confection.

Oh dear, enter in all the cheesy jokes as people try to demolish the thing

@box464 Want!

I'll bet it's dalektable!

@box464

YOU. WILL. BE. GLUTENATED.

@box464 You had me at garlic. And Dalek. And bread.

@box464
CONSUMMATE!

No… that's not right. Close. But not quite.

@box464
Could you pass me a probe please?
I can’t resist Bc. Useless
@box464 im not a Doctor Who fan...but this is kinda cool
@box464 Is it merely a delicious coincidence that one of the longest-serving Doctors was played by Tom BAKER?
@box464
This was an April fools joke I'm afraid

@Doomstrike @box464

That's true. As visible in the use by date, bottom right.

They totally should make these though!

@box464 ~~out of stock~~ exterminated!
@box464 How did you confirm that this April fool prank is "real"? Ask a chatbot?

@box464

Oh wait … "Iceland" is a UK supermarket chain.

I thought it was a national effort by the country Iceland. 😢

@box464

Wanting a Loaded Dalek.

Filling being computed ....

And Dalek Ciabatta. ...

Announcement: Dalek Loaded Lime Creme Brulee is ordered by the Supreme Dalek!

@box464 Let me be the first to say :

"Dalek? Bread?"

@box464 I'm sure many people have pointed out that this was an April Fool - might be good to edit your post?
@box464 In your defence, it was a good idea executed very thoroughly and with finesse! :)
@box464 "Best before 01.04.26", you have been fooled... It's a good one.
@box464 You didn't notice the sell by date, then? ;-)
@holdenweb I’m a stupid American and read that as January 4. 🇺🇸
@box464 Eradibake! Eradibake!
@box464 Not gonna lie... I was massively disappointed when I found out it wasn't real! I was like... "Who do we know in Iceland that can somehow ship us one?!? Must have it!!!" 😂
