Shoppers clear shelves as ALDI's $4.99 buy revives lost trend

If there’s one thing we Aussies love, it’s a good bargain—especially when it comes to sweet treats and kitchen essentials.

And right now, ALDI has shoppers running to the supermarket with this $4.99 dessert flying off the shelves faster than you can say 'Special Buys aisle'!


The latest must-have from ALDI is the limited edition Food Envy Mousse with Biscoff Spread, part of their new Autumn range.

For just $4.99, you get a decadent dessert layered with a Biscoff crumb base, a generous middle of Biscoff mousse, and a thick topping of Biscoff spread.

It’s a triple threat for anyone with a sweet tooth!

Melbourne foodie Nectro Vlangos (aka Nectorious Papi) described it as a 'Biscoff overload from bottom to top' and declared it 'heaven in a cup.'

And he’s not alone—hundreds of shoppers have taken to social media to rave about the treat, calling it a 'must' for dessert lovers.

One enthusiastic fan even admitted, 'I bought 20!'


But, as with all things sweet, there’s a word of warning: some shoppers found it a bit on the rich side.

'So good but very sickly by the end,' one person commented. So, if you’re planning to indulge, maybe pace yourself—or share with a friend!

For those who haven’t yet jumped on the Biscoff bandwagon, here’s a quick refresher: Biscoff is a caramelised biscuit spread that originated in Belgium and has taken the world by storm.

It’s become a cult favourite for its unique, spiced flavour and versatility—spread it on toast, swirl it into porridge, or, as ALDI has done, turn it into a show-stopping dessert.

The Biscoff craze is part of a broader trend of nostalgic, comfort-food flavours making a comeback. After all, who doesn’t love a treat that reminds them of simpler times?

ALDI’s not stopping at Biscoff mousse. Their new Autumn range features over 250 new products, including Sweet Haven Apple Pie Spring Rolls ($4.99), Toblerone Lava Cakes ($4.99), and a Ready Set… Cook! Beef Stir Fry Meal Kit ($13.99).


There’s something for every craving and every budget.

ALDI Shopping Expert Kylie Warnke said, 'This selection is all about treating your friends, family and yourself with quality meals, tasty treats and desserts without breaking the budget.'

It’s not just the dessert aisle that’s causing a stir.

ALDI’s beloved Crofton cast-iron cookware range is back in the Special Buys middle aisle from 12 March, and it’s already creating a buzz.

These pots and pans have been compared to the high-end French brand Le Creuset—but at a fraction of the price.
  • 24cm frypan: $9.99
  • 40cm frypan: $12.99
  • Mini pots and pans: $4.99
  • Containers: $9.99
  • Kitchen utensils: $1.99
Available in red, green, and blue, these kitchen essentials are dishwasher-safe and look remarkably similar to their luxury counterparts.


For example, the $4.99 mini pan is a dead ringer for the $410 Le Creuset Signature Cast Iron Saucepan!

No wonder shoppers are snapping them up—the range sold out in record time last time, and it’s likely to happen again.

ALDI’s Special Buys and limited edition products have become a cultural phenomenon in Australia.

The thrill of the hunt, the excitement of discovering a new favourite, and the satisfaction of scoring a bargain all combine to create a shopping experience that’s hard to beat.

For many over-60s, ALDI's ever-changing range is a great way to try new things without breaking the bank.

Whether you’re looking to treat the grandkids, impress at your next dinner party, or simply enjoy a little indulgence yourself, there’s always something new to discover.
