ALDI Australia releases new range of six cheeses all under $6 to elevate your party platter

At ALDI we’re known for many things – the middle aisle of dreams, lightning-fast check-outs, award-winning wines for less, and gourmet cheeses at un-BRIE-lievable prices.

Well, dairy-lovers are in luck, because we’re bringing six new seriously Goud-a cheeses to our shelves set to elevate your cheese platter whatever the occasion.

The shining new gem of the cheese selection is Emporium Selection’s Goats Cheese Pearls infused with fig ($3.99). Made in France, these little drops of heaven are bite-sized balls of creamy deliciousness filled with sweet fig for a perfect balanced bite. Great for appetizers or salads, they will surely be a hit for your next event.

Shane Aitken, Buying Director at ALDI Australia said: “We’re incredibly excited to be bringing the Goats Cheese pearls to our stores, we can’t wait to see how our cheese-loving customers respond to these delectable bites.”

For those more inclined to the Scandinavian way of life, the Swiss Grand Maurice cheese ($3.99) may be more favourable. This unique recipe was passed down through the generations of the Lustenberger family to create a fine 10-month matured cheese with a fruity and tangy taste.

Other notable mentions include the Balsamic BellaVitano ($5.99) that is prepared with a few drops of balsamic vinegar, and the Honey Infused Goat’s Cheese ($2.69) – an entertainer’s dream with its soft and creamy texture, making it perfect for appetizers.

Shane said: “We’re really proud of the unique and broad range of cheeses we have brought into stores this year. There are so many fine and beautiful cheeses that are perfect for every palette and every occasion, all available at our everyday low prices.

“We work hard to source and curate a selection of cheeses that our ALDI customers will enjoy testing with family and friends. Our cheeses continue to be one of the most loved aisles in our stores and we look forward to seeing how these new additions cut it.”

So Gouda-gracious, pop into your local ALDI to pick up these fine cheeses while stocks last.
