Shoppers Can't Get Enough: Discover the $5.99 ALDI Freezer Secret That Beats the $19 Brand!

When satisfying a sweet tooth, there's no denying the universal appeal of a creamy, dreamy scoop of ice cream or gelato. Whether it's a scorcher of a summer day or a chilly winter evening, this frozen treat makes any day a little brighter. But let's face it, indulging in artisanal brands can be a pricey affair; sometimes, you just want to enjoy your dessert without the side of wallet-ache. Enter ALDI's latest freezer aisle sensation that's got shoppers buzzing with excitement and delight.

ALDI, the beloved budget supermarket chain, has again proven that great taste doesn't have to come with a hefty price tag. They're offering 500ml tubs of gelato in an array of tantalising flavours – lemon, pistachio, and speculoos (Biscoff)all for the wallet-friendly price of just $5.99. This is a sweet deal compared to the $19 you might shell out at high-end gelaterias like Messina for a similar quantity of their premium product.


The buzz around ALDI's gelato range isn't just hearsay; it's been endorsed by none other than Aussie content creator Nectorious Papi, who shares his foodie adventures with a substantial following on TikTok. In a recent video that's got tongues wagging and mouths watering, he urged his 63k followers to 'run, don't walk' to Aldi to grab a tub of this frozen delight.

Nectorious Papi's review of the pistachio flavour was glowing. Despite initial scepticism due to the absence of visible swirls or cream, he was pleasantly surprised by the robust flavour profile. 'It's a super strong pistachio taste – nice, sweet. It's smooth and creamy, and then, obviously, you've got the pistachios on top for that crunch. This one is awesome,' he exclaimed.


His followers were quick to chime in, with one lamenting their recent purchase of the pricier Messina tub while another inquired about how ALDI's offering compared. The verdict? A 'much stronger pistachio taste,' according to Nectorious Papi.

But the pistachio isn't the only star of the show. The speculoos flavour, reminiscent of the beloved Biscoff cookies, has also been a huge hit. Nectareous Papi described it as having a pronounced cinnamon taste paired with a rich caramel gelato base. 'This reminds me more of the Ben and Jerry's Speculoos flavour rather than Biscoff ice cream. So, if you love cinnamon with caramel, then you'll like this one. It's not really Biscoff, but still really nice either way – cheap, really nice, creamy, tasty.'

And let's not overlook the classic lemon flavor, which has been hailed as a refreshing palate cleanser and a delightful treat in its own right. ALDI shoppers have taken to Facebook to express their adoration for the lemon gelato, with comments like 'I’m stuck on lemon it’s so good,' and 'The lemon is so delicious and refreshing, I love it as a palate cleanser after dinner.'


It's clear that ALDI's gelato range is more than just a budget-friendly alternative to high-end brands; it's a testament to the supermarket's commitment to quality and value. Shoppers are not only getting a delicious product at a fraction of the cost, but they're also discovering new favourites that stand toe-to-toe with the more expensive options.

So, dear members of the Seniors Discount Club, if you're looking to indulge in a sweet, frozen treat without breaking the bank, it's time to make a beeline to ALDI's freezer section. Whether you're a fan of nutty pistachio, spicy speculoos, or zesty lemon, there's something for everyone in this delectable lineup.
