Aldi is challenging shoppers to put their taste buds to the test with a supermarket first this Easter.

The supermarket is set to launch three limited-edition Village Bakery Mystery Hot Cross Buns, which will hit shelves between March 20 and April 6.


Aldi has announced a competition alongside the release of the mystery buns. Three lucky winners will each receive £1,000 in vouchers if they can correctly identify the secret flavours.

Each mystery flavour will be released on consecutive Thursdays, with distinctive packaging aiming to intrigue customers.
