These are the Best Fall Seasonal Products at Aldi

Fall is one of our favorite times at Aldi. Some of the best food products of the year — from pumpkin cake rolls to maple whipped topping — show up during this season.

Some fall-themed foods are Aldi Finds, which stores get a single shipment of, and they’re not restocked again until the next year. Other fall foods at Aldi are Seasonal Items, which actually do get restocked multiple times during that season.

If you’re curious about what kinds of fall Seasonal Items Aldi sells, you can visit the website for Aldi US, click on the Featured tab, and then select Seasonal Products to view all the available items. The list of Seasonal Items listed on Aldi’s site will change according to the time of year, from fall to winter to summer.

(Also, keep in mind that Aldi frequently changes the status of certain products. An everyday Regular Buy might, without notice, become a single-shipment Aldi Find or a Seasonal Item stocked for just a few months, and vice versa.)

The following is a list of some of our favorite Fall Seasonal Items at Aldi, with links to our reviews. Prices may vary depending on your local store region.

 Baked Goods:

• Bake Shop Apple Cider Donuts — Soft, apple-flavored donuts with a cinnamon and sugar coating. We like the Aldi donuts better than Trader Joe’s Apple Cider Donuts.
• Bake Shop Pumpkin Cake Roll — Delicious pumpkin spice cake rolled up with a layer of buttercream frosting. We liked this much better when it had cream cheese frosting, but the current buttercream version is all right as well.
• Bake Shop Pumpkin Sliced Loaf Cake — Nothing compares to homemade pumpkin bread, but this version is pretty good. Best served with a dollop of whipped cream.
• L’Oven Fresh Pumpkin Spice Bagels — These have good pumpkin spice flavor without being overwhelming, or overly sweet. Serve lightly toasted and topped with cream cheese.

Beverages:

• Beaumont Hot Cocoa Mix — Your classic instant hot cocoa mix packets. They come in original or with mini marshmallows. We like this best when it’s made with milk instead of water.
• Nature’s Nectar Apple Cider — A fall favorite.
• Popz Prebiotic Soda — We’re under the impression this is an everyday Regular Buy, but Aldi listed it among its fall Seasonal Items. This is an imitation of name-brand Poppi soda, which is low in added sugars and claims to contain gut health-promoting prebiotics.

Dairy:

• Friendly Farms Pumpkin Spice Whipped Topping — Add a little something extra to your pumpkin pie, pumpkin bread, coffee, or whatever else your heart desires.

Deli:

• Park Street Deli Pretzel Bites — The current pretzel bites come with your choice of mustard or cheese sauce for dipping. We’ve had the mustard version and it’s amazing.
• Priano Lobster or Crab Ravioli — Light on the seafood, but they’re cheesy and taste good. Add sauce of your choice.

Fresh Meat:

• Sweet Chili Lime Chicken Skewers — We initially thought these were a summer item at Aldi, but it looks like Aldi is carrying these into the fall months.
• Stuffed Atlantic Salmon Portions — People tend to either love or loathe these. They’re just okay in our opinion.

Frozen Foods:

• Rana Meat Lasagna — It’s not Stouffers, but it’s pretty good.
• Belmont Deep Dish Pie Crusts — For times when you need a heavy-duty pie crust.
• Belmont Mini Cheesecake Bites — A fun way to sample a variety of flavors without all the calories of full cheesecake slices. Includes New York Style, Strawberry Swirl, and Turtle.
• Bremer Shepherd’s Pie — A decent frozen meal. Memorable because of the arguments its name causes.
• Fremont Fish Market Tempura Shrimp — Large, crispy breaded shrimp with a soy dipping sauce. These are are a favorite in our family for Christmas or New Year’s parties.
• Mama Cozzi’s Toasted Ravioli — Toasted rav seems to come and go from our local stores, and we aren’t always sure if it’s a Regular Buy or a Seasonal Item. It’s currently featured among the fall seasonal specials on Aldi’s website, so we’ll be stocking up appropriately.
• Specially Selected Caramel Apple or Apple Berry Blossoms — These fruit-filled pastries were once a limited-time Aldi Find, but it appears Aldi is stocking them throughout the fall holidays.
• Specially Selected Cherry or Apple Mascarpone Strudel — These fruit- and cheese-filled pastries were also first advertised as an Aldi Find, but now they’re back for a few months.
• Fremont Fish Market Wild Caught Langostino Tails — We love making lobster rolls with these langostino tails and with Trader Joe’s Brioche Hot Dog Buns. The langostino tails used to be a limited-time Aldi Find that we had to stock up on. Now, you can bet we’ll be making lobster rolls throughout the fall.
• Specially Selected Mini Cream Puffs or Mini Eclairs — A longtime everyday buy in the freezer aisle, it looks like these are becoming a fall Seasonal Item now. They’re delicious, so maybe it doesn’t hurt that we aren’t tempted by them year round now.

Pantry Essentials:

• Baker’s Corner 100% Pure Canned Pumpkin — The perfect base for pumpkin pie, pumpkin bread, and all other pumpkin treats. This is our go-to whenever we need canned pumpkin.
• Baker’s Corner Apple Pie Filling — Plenty of firm apples with a bit of cinnamon. Holds up well during baking and the apples don’t get mushy.
• Baker’s Corner Fried Apples with Cinnamon — A taste of a Cracker Barrel classic.
• Burman’s Cocktail Sauce — Easily our favorite cocktail sauce for shrimp, even above name brands.
• Chef’s Cupboard Hawaiian Stuffing — A fun twist on traditional stuffing for your Thanksgiving meal. We always pick up a box or two.
• Specially Selected Pesto Macaroni and Cheese — If it involves pesto, you don’t have to ask us twice. A great staple lunch or side item to keep in your pantry.
• Specially Selected Assorted Jarred Soups — Choose from Tomato Parmesan Bisque, Southwest Style Tomato & Black Bean, or Hearty Vegetable. The tomato soup has a classic smooth and creamy texture with small bits of diced tomato and onion, along with hints of Parmesan flavor. It’s like an amped-up version of a smooth Campbell’s tomato soup and pairs well with grilled cheese or French bread.
• Sweet Harvest Jellied Cranberry Sauce — Thanksgiving dinner isn’t complete without this.
• Chef’s Cupboard Condensed Tomato Soup — We still prefer Campbell’s, but this isn’t bad.
• Baker’s Corner Unsweetened Baking Cocoa Powder — We keep this around for making no-bake cookies, and it works as well as Hershey’s for a fraction of the price.
• Chef’s Cupboard Onion Recipe, Soup, and Dip Mix — We were sure this was a Regular Buy, so we’re not certain why Aldi is listing it among its fall Seasonal Products. We don’t know about other people, but we need onion dip year round.
• Chef’s Cupboard Soup Mixes — Classics like chili, chicken noodle, potato, and cheddar broccoli. These are a knockoff of Bear Creek soup mixes, and they’re good, especially if you doctor them with extra cheese, potatoes, veggies, etc.

Personal Care:

• Welby Elderberry Gummies — With elderberry extract, vitamin C, and zinc, these might help boost your immune system during cold and flu season. They taste good, too.
• Welby Apple Cider Vinegar Gummies — Apple cider vinegar has many touted benefits. These gummies taste better than drinking diluted apple cider vinegar.

Snacks:

• Benton’s Maple Leaf Creme Cookies — One of the quieter cult favorites among Aldi products. A creamy sandwich cookie with maple and vanilla notes. The perfect complement to a cup of hot tea or coffee. Trader Joe’s sells the same cookies, but you’ll pay less at Aldi.
• Specially Selected Caramel Stroopwafels — From the Netherlands. The name literally means “syrup waffle.” These waffle-like thin wafer cookies feature a sandwich filling of creamy, rich caramel. Eat them straight out of the box, or, for a truly indulgent experience, place a stroopwafel over a hot cup of tea, coffee, or hot chocolate for a minute to steam the wafer and warm the caramel filling.
