The spooky piece of homeware looks very similar to a luxury label – without having the bumper price tag that matches
As temperatures dip, it is natural for people to move away from barbeques and light summer salads to hearty soups, stews and casseroles. If you’re looking for something a little different to enhance how you serve up these dishes, Aldi has you covered with its viral pumpkin-shaped casserole dish.
The discount retailer confirmed some fan favourite seasonal items will be returning to the infamous middle aisle later this month on September 19 during its upcoming home event. Within the range of stock that shoppers need to claim quickly before they sell out is the previously viral ceramic casserole pumpkin dish, priced at £14.99.
The hype around the dish is appreciated even more when it looks very similar to a designer version that sports a three figure price tag. Homeware giant Le Creuset’s pumpkin dish is worth £270, which means going to Aldi will save you a whopping £255.
The Aldi Crofton product was available in a choice of burnt orange or earthy cream last time it hit shop shelves to add an autumnal touch to any kitchen, with similar colours this year. It is topped with a decorative pumpkin stalk that doubles as a sturdy and stylish handle.
Suitable for oven use, Aldi’s kitchen ‘must-have’ is designed with a tight-fitting lid to ensure all the flavours stay sealed in with an impressive 2.2L capacity. The pricy Le Creuset version is made of cast iron whilst Aldi’s cookware is an ovenproof ceramic. Other subtle differences include Aldi’s slightly smaller design as Le Creuset’s dish holds “a hearty 3.7L”.
According to LatestDeals, Aldi is also rolling out a full range of seasonal goodies to help you embrace the autumn spirit including pumpkin-shaped doorstops (£5.99) and plenty of cosy cushions and candles. The range also includes autumnal gonks for £7.99.
Another returning fan favourite item is the Hotel Collection Hurricane Candles (£19.99). These come in two new autumnal scents – Pumpkin & Caramel and Fallen Leaves.
Candle lovers will also find a Ceramic Pumpkin Candle (£3.99) whilst stocks last. These are available in a trio of seasonal scents including Sweet Pumpkin Pie, Autumn Leaves and Citrus Pumpkin Spice.
