I tried the pistachio brioche croissant this morning, it was not bad! I thought it was nicer than the chocolate one. However I was starving and had exactly 37 seconds to eat it before I had to leave to go out so I’m unsure if I even tasted it tbh 
@Penguin2022 have you seen this mixer https://www.bmstores.co.uk/products/salter-aspen-stand-mixer-428075. £39.99 hthWish I’d done this before I trekked out trying to find the stand mixer!
Yes I have two kenwood ran a baking business and I paid more for stainless steel bowls for the machines than the price of these machines, yes they are workhorses, and heard good things about the Aldi machine, One of my kenwood has gone off for repair and hopefully be as good as new when it gets back..My late husband used to like baking and bought a Kenwood with all the bells and whistles and used it for a few years until our son "borrowed" it to do a couple of weddings for friends. It never came back so hubby bought the £40 Aldi one and said although it didn't do all the tricks the Kenwood one did it was a brilliant machine and good value.
After he died last year I gave it to a single mum neighbour who loves baking and said this Aldi one is still going great.
There's something incredibly unappetising about the vaguely named 'Gooey Spread'OMG this is basically Creme Egg filling, in a jar![]()
There's a Mini Eggs one as well.

I had a look today, all I thought was the egg shaped pancetta as i know my daughter will love how they look. I thought the pistaccio tiramisu was a lamb rump with a herb crust at first glanceThe Easter roast range in my Aldi today was a bit naff. I did pick up some stuffing balls and pigs in blankets to go with my roast chicken on Sunday though, just to save time.
Quoting myself to edit, as best part of a bottle of wine was consumed before this post! Egg shaped panacotta, and not pancetta!!!I had a look today, all I thought was the egg shaped pancetta as i know my daughter will love how they look.

I wanted them, was disappointed they were so small.For the first time this year, I went to Aldi to get a specific special buy and they actually had them in stock!
It was the baskets with the bamboo lids, and the employee manning the self checkout accused me of trying to steal the lidsBoth the baskets and the lids have stickers on them saying "don't forget the lid" and the lid doesn't even have a barcode on it to scan, but he insisted on calling a manager over, who confirmed that the lids and the baskets were one item and then apologised profusely
If anyone's a fan of the protein mousse by muller & myprotein, don't get the Aldi version - they're barely edible & have a weird texture![]()
They are a good size for the space on top of our kitchen cupboards. Our kitchen probably hasn't been updated since the 70's and I need more storage, but we're not going to get around to getting it done until next year (the bathrooms were in more dire needI wanted them, was disappointed they were so small.
On a plus point my aldi was selling Easter stuff off for 9p today
