Aldi’s Specially Selected Chocolate Bunny (100g) has been reduced in price from £1.69 to £1.19 – meaning it is now 68 per cent cheaper than the version produced by Lindt, which is 125g and costs £3.75.
The German supermarket chain said in a statement: “Donning the iconic charming golden wrapping, signature bow and smooth milk chocolate taste, shoppers can pick up this delicious Easter staple in Aldi stores now for £2.56 less than Lindt’s equivalent.”
But those eager to secure the saving will have to hop to it, Aldi warned, because the 50p reduction will end on March 6.
Chocolate-lovers can also pick up the Specially Selected Hazelnut Milk Chocolate Bunny (125g) from Aldi – recently crowned “Best Chocolate Bunny” at the BBC Good Food Awards – for £1.19.
The smooth milk chocolate bunny has all of the flavour of the original – with with a sweet, nutty twist.
Those who prefer white chocolate, or are buying for white chocolate-lovers, might be more interested in Aldi’s Specially Selected White Chocolate Bunny (100g), also £1.19.
Or, Aldi is selling “gorgeous” truffle-filled milk chocolate egg Lindt dupes made by Moser Roth for £1.99 per 150g in stores and online.
By comparison, Lindt is selling an 80g back of double chocolate mini eggs for £1.90.
The Aldi dupe gives almost double the chocolate for just 9p more.
Meanwhile, fans are going wild for “lush” new hot cross buns with a heavenly chocolate twist.
Aldi shoppers hailed the Easter-themed treat as packets flew off the shelves and quickly sold out.
Inspired by the iconic hazelnut Nutella spread, Nutoka Hot Cross Buns, which come with milk chocolate chips sprinkled throughout, are perfect for enjoying with a cuppa.
A pack of four costs £1.25, and each bun just 31p, making these a bargain goodie.
From March 14, Aldi shoppers will be able to pick up a new Easter toy.
The chain is introducing Easter-themed Kevin the Carrot toys with two outfits – a sheep or a bunny – for £3.99.
Shoppers will be able to purchase the adorable Kevins from the Specialbuys section of their nearest branch – but there is limited stock, so people will have to be quick to snap one up.
