Is there any reason why Aldi doesn't jump into bakery items like Lidl does?

I thought they were trialling them in a few UK stores and would slowly add them to more stores but I haven't seen anything since I saw an article on it. For all those new food/reviewer accounts I see online I don't think I've seen a single one mention them

I love sour cola bottles but often find supermarket ones to be rank. I never think to check Lidl for sweets so will pick up a bag next time. Thank you!

Talking of cola, Aldi announced what their mystery flavour hot cross buns were... the first ones released that I thought were lemon but had every fruit bar lemon listed in the ingredients were supposed to be cola flavoured 🤔

I didn't end up getting the other two, but they were mango & passion fruit and the final ones were strawberry jam

Lidl has Easter treats on the app between now and Saturday (mine was a free bag of mini Malteser’s rabbits today) 🐰

Aldi has been sold out of raspberry and white chocolate hot cross buns for over a week I’m enraged. 😤 I need some to freeze before they disappear for another YEAR.

I picked these up this evening on your recommendation. They are great 😍 and the bag is huge

While in Lidl I picked up some other bits I needed and couldn’t believe it only cost me a fiver. I’d probably have spent triple on similar in M&S. I really need to start doing more of my shop in Lidl

I got a free £5 recently and a free bun from the bakery. Then they said I was getting near to a free fruit or veg item.

Ah I’m glad! My daughter finished my bag in the car today so I need to go back and get some more.

So thought I would check out the 8p veg, the carrots, basically the biggest, 4 or 5 in a bag, no thanks
 
I really struggled for an Easter pudding big enough to feed all this year. I toured every shop and in desperation got two of the lidl apple strudels, £1.55 feeds 6 ..and it was great, everyone loved it. 20 mins in the airfryer, flaky, appley, yummy!.

For some mad reason we had some hot cross buns going a bit stale, I made bread and butter pudding with them today, very good.

Yes I must admit at that price I didn't expect great things but they were good!. The adults had custard and the children ice cream, everyone was happy. Definitely getting the other version to try, cherry?

We had Lidl sticky toffee pudding with creme fraiche. It is insanely good.
