‘They’re back’ Aldi shoppers rave over return of ‘lush’ Toblerone dupe chocolate bar

The blonde bar is seen as a family favourite with happy customers describing it as “lush” as they race into stores to bag up the sweet treat.

Each 100g pack costs an impressive £1.49 meaning peckish fans can stack their cupboards full.

Each bar is packed with delicious ingredients from white chocolate, honey, almond, nougat and even salted caramel pieces lying behind the wrapper.

An actual bar of normal Toblerone will set you back a hefty amount with the smallest offering being a 200g bar for £4 at Tesco.

However if you want the white chocolate version like Aldi’s alternative then it will cost you a whopping £6 for a 360g bar.

Meaning Aldi’s chocolatey alternative is cheaper per 100g.

The bars were last seen in November 2023 but seemingly vanished after winter leaving shoppers gutted to believe they were a Christmas treat only.

But with it being restocked already sweet toothed fans are raving about its return.

A picture of the bar back on shelves was shared to social media with one happy shopper saying: “This looks amazing!!!”

As another simply wrote: “That looks lush!”

A pair of friends even practically drooled over the mountain bar as they spoke on how badly they want it.

One said: “How yummy does this look.”

As her pal replied: “Oh yesssssss, you need to find me one.”

Before a fifth commenter put: “Oh these are the business. Really yummy.”

The product is still unavailable online at Aldi meaning those who want to get their hands on it will need to go their local store to check.

Bargain specialists Aldi are known as the kings of great deals.

They are selling an incredible dog-friendly product perfect for the chilly autumn weather.

The reversible puffer jacket item is being sold as part of the supermarket’s Specialbuy range later this week with it prices set to start from just £7.99.

Aldi Specialbuys are a unique and fantastic offering from the supermarket.

It comes as Aldi bargain hunters were also rushing out to get their hands on a dupe for a popular Cadbury’s dessert.

Dairyfine Pots of Choc, Aldi’s version of Cadbury’s Dairy Milk Pots of Joy, are described as a “smooth and creamy dessert”.

Other shoppers were going wild for a middle-aisle find that’s scanning at tills for as little as 99p.

The Kids Camping Chair – shaped like a fox – was already massively reduced at just £4.99 but one lucky shopper managed to bag one up for under a pound.

You can find your nearest Aldi store by using the retailer’s store locator tool on its website.

Remember it is always best to shop around to try and spot which shop has the best deal on any particular product.

When’s the best time to shop at Aldi?

WHEN it comes to shopping at Aldi, the best time to do so depends on what you want to buy.

For reduced items – when shops open

Red sticker items are rare at Aldi’s 830 UK stores, but the supermarket says that none of its food goes to waste so there are some to be found – if you’re quick.

A spokesman for the supermarket said: “All items are reduced to 50 per cent of the recommend sales price before stores open on their best before or use by dates.”

That means you have the best chance of finding reduced food items if you go into stores as soon as it opens.

Opening times vary by shop but a majority open from 7am or 8am. You can find your nearest store’s times by using the supermarket’s online shop finder tool.

For Specialbuys – Thursdays and Sundays

Specialbuys are Aldi’s weekly collection of items that it doesn’t normally sell, which can range from pizza ovens to power tools.

New stock comes into stores every Thursday and Sunday, so naturally, these are the best days to visit for the best one-off special deals.

For an even better chance of bagging the best items, head there for your local store’s opening time.

You don’t have to head into stores to bag a Specialbuy, though.

They also go on sale online, usually at midnight on Thursday and Sunday, and you can pre-order them up to a week in advance.

As long as you spend at least £25, you’ll get the items delivered for free.

Remember: once they’re gone, they’re gone, so if there’s something you really want, visit as early as possible
