IT may only be January, but a bargain supermarket is already stirring up excitement with the launch of a much-loved Easter food favourite.
Aldi has unveiled its first hot cross buns of the season, and with prices starting from as little as 18p per bun, it’s no wonder fans are excited.

The supermarket’s Village Bakery Fruited Hot Cross Buns are soft, lightly spiced, and perfect toasted with lashings of butter for a classic Easter treat.
And for just £1.09, you can get a pack with six of these delicious treats or a pack of four for just £1.49.
For those who prefer something a little fancier, Aldi’s Specially Selected Luxury Fruited Hot Cross Buns are loaded with juicy sultanas, currants, and zesty mixed peel.
These buns promise a bakery-quality indulgence at a fraction of the price you’d pay elsewhere.
Aldi has teased that their full hot cross bun range will be landing soon, but shoppers can already find these delicious offerings in stores now.
It’s a bold move to roll out Easter products in January, but Aldi knows how to stay ahead of the game.
Shoppers looking for bargains and tasty treats can always count on the budget retailer to deliver — and these hot cross buns are no exception.
But Aldi isn’t stopping there.
The store has also brought back its popular peri-peri sauce range, with shoppers saying it rivals a certain famous chicken chain.
The £1.25 bottles of Bramwells Garlic Peri-Peri Sauce and Hot Peri-Peri Sauce are flying off the shelves, with fans taking to social media to rave about their quality.
One eagle-eyed shopper spotted the dupes and flocked to social media to encourage others to nab theirs.
Ash Ryan Noremberg posted on the Facebook group Food Finds UK: “ALDI £1.25 each.
“These are the same brand as the last ones Aldi did in a different bottle. The last ones tasted too salty.
“These are just like Nandos.”
Her post quickly blew up, racking up hundreds of comments and reactions from fans eager to grab the find for themselves.
One shopper declared the garlic sauce “amaaaaaazing” and “just like Nando’s,” while another said it was “great with southern fried chicken and chips.”
The buzz doesn’t end with sauces either.
Aldi’s Crestwood Sausage Rolls — a pack of four for just £1.19 — have been dubbed “better than Greggs” by devoted fans.
Social media groups have lit up with praise for the flaky, savoury treats, which shoppers say rival the high street bakery in both taste and value.
How to save money on your supermarket shop
There are plenty of ways to save on your grocery shop.
You can look out for yellow or red stickers on products, which show when they’ve been reduced.
If the food is fresh, you’ll have to eat it quickly or freeze it for another time.
Making a list should also save you money, as you’ll be less likely to make any rash purchases when you get to the supermarket.
Going own brand can be one easy way to save hundreds of pounds a year on your food bills too.
This means ditching “finest” or “luxury” products and instead going for “own” or value” type of lines.
Plenty of supermarkets run wonky veg and fruit schemes where you can get cheap prices if they’re misshapen or imperfect.
For example, Lidl runs its Waste Not scheme, offering boxes of 5kg of fruit and vegetables for just £1.50.
If you’re on a low income and a parent, you may be able to get up to £442 a year in Healthy Start vouchers to use at the supermarket too.
Plus, many councils offer supermarket vouchers as part of the Household Support Fund.
