ALDI November finds have you covered for the holidays
By Nancy West
The leaves have changed color and we’ve gotten our fill of cider doughnuts, freshly-picked apples and Halloween treats. With the arrival of November, we now have Thanksgiving on our minds. Whether you’re hosting the holiday or just doing your weekly shopping, ALDI has you covered to help you stock up on holiday treats, make the perfect charcuterie board and more. Check out these ALDI November finds (dates the items arrive in stores are in parentheses).
Holiday Treats
ALDI’s Winternacht line of German desserts are perfect for the holidays. They have everything from Marzipan Stollen and Almond Spekulatius to Pfeffernusse and Soft Gingerbread (all available 11/2).
Moser Roth’s individually wrapped Mini Chocolades and Grand Chocolades are perfect for filling up your candy dishes. A selection of Choceur Dark Chocolate or White Chocolate Peppermint Bark, Choceur Chocolate Covered Marshmallows, Clancy’s Peppermint Pretzel Stars and Benton’s Fudge Coated Peppermint Cremes (all available 11/2) will make the perfect dessert platter.

Charcuterie Board
I don’t think charcuterie boards will ever stop being popular. They are the perfect appetizer or light meal. ALDI has lots of items to create the most delicious custom board. Emporium makes a variety of different cheese including smoked and spicy varieties (all available since 9/8). It makes it easy to try some new cheese flavors when they are so reasonably priced.
Of course you will need something to pair with all of that cheese! Specially Selected makes Cheese Crisps, Artisan Crackers, Crostini Crackers, Italian Breadsticks and Norwegian Crispbread (all of which have been available since 9/8). Try one or all of them!
To round out the perfect charcuterie board, you can add Appleton Farms Salami Collection, Specially Selected Fig or Sour Cherry Fruit Spread, Specially Selected Red Pepper Spread or Onion Chutney, Specially Selected Tapenade and some Specially Selected Cheese Stuffed Olives (all available as of 9/8).
Beverages
Unfortunately, not all ALDI stores are able to sell alcohol. If you shop at a store that does, you are in luck. They have all kinds of alcoholic beverages that will elevate your holiday get together. For your guests who love wine, stock up on Pacific Fruit Vineyards Sweet Cranberry or Apple Wine, Belletti Moscato D’Asti, Intermingle Pinot Noir or Quarter Cut Bourbon Barrel Zinfandel (all available as of 10/13).
For those who prefer drinking beverages out of a can, there’s State of Brewing Chocolate Lava Cake Stout and the State of Brewing Hard Seltzer Holiday Party Pack (both available as of 10/13).
If you’d like a more holiday themed beverage, try Holly Hill Farm Eggnog Wine, Winterliebe Apple or Cherry Mulled Wine or Petit Peppermint Bark Wine (all available as of 10/13).
