Fans of Taco Bell and Le Creuset, rejoice—dupes are coming to Aldi!
Spring has officially sprung! That means all I want to do is make pastas filled with asparagus and fruity and floral cocktails. I’m also tempted to reorganize my entire pantry—again. One of the benefits of living in a gorgeous 140-year old Victorian house is that I have a truly stunning walk-in pantry off of my kitchen. Of course, the downside is that it becomes an “Oh, shoot, guests are coming over—throw everything in here!” kind of space. So it needs a refresh every few months.
Luckily, Aldi has some really great products that I can use to help me out with my pantry and beyond. This month’s Aldi Finds are full of great kitchen storage and organization items, but also some that are just beautiful to look at. I have my eye on an absolutely stunning dupe of one of the most coveted Le Creuset items.
There’s also a great remix in the grocery aisle as well. It looks like Aldi appreciates Taco Bell, because it dropped a few dupes for fan-favorite products as well.
Every month, Aldi drops a slew of new and unique items—and brings back some customer favorites. Since the grocery is famous for its motto of “here today, gone tomorrow,” I figured that I would turn my passion into an inside scoop for you. Here are the best Aldi Finds hitting shelves in April. Time to mark these dates on your calendars!

Crofton Scalloped Tiered Server
After finishing another enchanting season of Bridgerton, all I want to do is surround myself with beautiful servingware. This gorgeous floral tiered server wouldn’t look out of place at one of the ton’s balls—or my dining room table. Don’t be surprised if I start inviting you over for tea!

Crofton Floral Cast Iron Dutch Oven
Have you ever seen anything so beautiful? This Dutch oven with a floral lid is a perfect dupe for a highly coveted Le Creuset Petal Braiser. The main difference is the price because the Le Creuset retails for $315. Considering that I’m going to be filling it with soups, stews and freshly baked loaves of bread, I’d much prefer the Aldi version. It makes good sense and cents!
Cost: $19.99 (Can you believe it?)
Available: April 1

Mattigan’s Dubai Style Pistachio Cream Spread
In case you somehow missed this food trend, Dubai chocolate treats are everywhere. Now you can bring the star of the show—pistachios mixed with kataifi—to your pantry. Kataifi is a pastry made with shredded phyllo dough, so it’s a great textural element to the spread.
Cost: $5.99

Kirkton House Basket with Bamboo Lid
You might find me politely elbowing people out of the way to stock up on more of these baskets. I love that they’re not airtight because it makes them great for storing potatoes and onions. The handle is also easy to grab and move around or lift off shelves. Plus, they look nice too.
Cost: $7.99
Available: April 1

Crofton 2-Pack Berry or Produce Keeper
If I had to say my number one frustration with eating more fruits and vegetables, it would be that it is hard to keep them fresh. That’s why I’m really excited for these produce keepers. They have a special bottom lid that allows moisture to drain away from the food so they last longer.
Cost: $9.99
Available: April 1

Aldi Chili Garlic Edamame
If you’re anything like me, the best part about going out to a sushi restaurant is actually ordering the edamame appetizer. I love popping these edamame beans out of their pods for a fun, protein-filled snack. This chili garlic version will add a nice kick of spice and flavor to the experience.
Cost: $2.89
Available: April 8

Crofton Container
This is hitting Aldi shelves just in time for peak road trip season. I’m actually driving to Dollywood for the Flower & Food Festival again this year, and I know I’ll want plenty of snacks during that drive. Whether you’re hitting the road, sitting at soccer or softball practice or simply enjoying the nice weather, these snack containers will absolutely come in handy.
Cost: $3.99

Clancy’s Cinnamon Churros
One look at this bag of Clancy’s Cinnamon Churros and I know immediately what they are a dupe for: Taco Bell’s Cinnamon Twists. That light, airy crunch with a finger-lickin’ sweet sprinkle of cinnamon and sugar is unmistakable. Now, you don’t even have to go to Taco Bell to get them—just stock up your pantry!
Cost: $1.39
Available: April 22

Casa Mamita Layered Tostada
It looks like the on-again, off-again relationship that Taco Bell has had with its Mexican Pizza is spawning copycats. From a grocery store Mexican Pizza kit to this new Aldi freezer find, fans of that iconic menu item can enjoy them at home. The Aldi version is available in beef and chicken versions, and it’s much cheaper as well.
Cost: $3.89

Deutsche Kuche Doppel Keks Sandwich Cookies
I saved the best Aldi Find for last. These sandwich cookies, part of Aldi’s Deutsche Kuche (literally “German Cuisine”) lineup, are my absolute favorite cookies. For starters, each cookie is huge. The cookie itself is incredibly crisp, and the filling is smooth, chocolaty and not too sweet. Whenever they’re back in stores, I stock up—and you should too!
