Aldi took to social media to show off the new snacks and shoppers went wild.
Posting on Instagram, the beloved network shared a Photograph of new tapas dishes, including pieces of chorizo, olives and croquettes.
Alongside the post, the supermarket wrote: ‘Nothing takes a holiday get-together for the next level like tapas in the sun.
‘Our specially curated range has all your favorites including: grilled Spanish chorizo, albondigas meatballs, Spanish Iberian croquetas [and] Olives.
The chain then added: “Find all this and more in stores now.”
So whether you’re a fan of Sicily’s Queen Nocellara olives or want to enjoy the holiday weekend with some pork and beef meatballs, you’ll need to head to your local Aldi ASAP.
And don’t worry, these snacks won’t break the bank – while the olives are just £1.89, the chorizo, meatballs and croquetas are just £1.99 each.
The post, which was shared on Aldi’s official Instagram account @aldiukit was only uploaded a day ago, but it quickly racked up over 2,600 likes.
Food fans were stunned by the news and many took to the comments to express this.
Not only did people find the snacks “tasty,” but one woman was particularly interested in the croquettes.
One person said: “All that please and some Italian spritz.”
Another added: “They look tasty.”
When is 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 stores open
Items with red stickers are rare across Aldi’s 830 UK stores, but the supermarket says none of its food goes to waste, so there are some to be found – if you’re quick.
A spokesperson for the supermarket said: “All items are reduced to 50 per cent of the recommended retail price before stores open at their best time or best before date.”
This means you’ll have a better chance of finding reduced-price foods if you go to stores as soon as they open.
Opening hours vary depending on the store, but most open from 7am or 8am. You can find the hours of your nearest store using the supermarket online store finder tool.
For special purchases – Thursdays and Sundays
Special Buys are Aldi’s weekly collection of items that it doesn’t normally sell, which can range from pizza ovens to power tools.
New stock arrives in stores every Thursday and Sunday, so naturally these are the best days to visit for the best one-off specials.
For an even better chance of bagging the best items, head to your local store during opening hours.
However, you don’t need to go to stores to buy a Specialbuy.
They are also on sale online, usually at midnight on Thursday and Sunday, and you can order them up to a week in advance.
As long as you spend at least £25, items will be delivered free of charge.
Remember: once they’re gone, they’re gone, so if there’s something you really want, visit asap
A third commented: “The croquettes are incredible, the closest I’ve found to authentic Spanish!”
Meanwhile, another food lover wrote: “Very tempted.”

And don’t worry, Aldi has confirmed that standard opening hours across its branches will apply on Sunday 26th May.
