Aldi Bake Shop Carrot Cake Sandwich Cookies

Score: 7.25 / 10

Incredibly soft, too much, even. The inside cream is like an airy and thin pillow, which, while nice, does feel a bit cheap as it lacks density. It’s also not too sweet or flavorful; it kind of just has a slight creamy cream cheese hint. Most of the flavor comes from the moderately sweet carrot cake cookie itself, which tastes authentic and homemade; however, they are on the crumbly side and fall apart. What I find most interesting is that you can absolutely taste the carrot, and the texture feels homemade!

Released March 2024 for the Easter and spring season. Found May 2025.


Aldi Bake Shop Lemon Streusel Cake

Score: 8 / 10

Holy moly, this might be the moistest cake I’ve ever had! Compared to Aldi’s other cakes, like the chocolate one, this is even more moist! From the outside to the inside, it almost feels wet, but in a good way! It’s so, so soft and has a sugary sweet, light lemony taste without any punchiness. The sugary glaze and yellow frosting on top add an immediate addition to the sweetness, although it’s only surface level as it’s quite thin. Speaking of only surface level, the streusel doesn’t really add much–perhaps a few super light, crunchy bits? Eh. Anyway, overall, if you want a sweet, extremely moist, light-lemony cake, this is it!

Released around late March 2025. Found April 2025.


Aldi Bake Shop Triple Chocolate Creme Cake

Score: 7 / 10

There’s a lot of hype for this cheap Aldi cake; is it worth it? I guess. You can almost certainly find similar miniature cakes at most other stores with around the same quality.

To me, it’s too much cake and too little drizzle. The cake is pretty darn moist and spongy but also dense enough not to feel cheap. The top layer of goo and soft chocolate chips doesn’t add much aside from a soft-crunchier texture (specifically from the little chocolate chips). It all comes across as semi-dark and pleasantly sweet. Overall, frankly, if you blindfolded me and put this and a perfectly made dark chocolate boxed chocolate cake mix in front of me, I probably couldn’t tell much of a difference.

This cake pairs well with whipped cream or ice cream. Also, as a side note, it feels and tastes slightly better chilled. Weirdly, it seems to become more dense, almost resembling a super moist brownie.

I’m unsure of an exact release date, although reviews date back several years. Found March 2025.


Aldi Bake Shop Kitchen Sink Cookies

Score: 7 / 10

First taste: Yup, that’s peanut butter. It’s light but noticeable. They are perfectly sweet, about right, not too much or too little: unoffending. There’s a variety of toppings embedded that add bits of crunch, soft bits, and other textural compositions. In terms of flavor, aside from some peanut butter, I taste some dark chocolate bits, but that’s really about it. The cookie itself is reasonably soft but solid, on the slightly chewier and dry side. Still, it’s tasty, and the texture is good enough.

While I’m not sure when this was released, some reviews date back to 2018. Found at Aldi January 2025.


Aldi Bake Shop Gingerbread Frosted Sugar Cookies

Score: 6.5 / 10

A thin layer of sugary frosting sits atop a very sweet, gingery cookie. The cookie itself is a little dry. At the very least, unlike Lofthouse cookies, you can taste the flavor despite them being so sweet.

Not sure of an exact release date, although these were spotted in December 2024. Found at Aldi December 2025.


Aldi Bake Shop Cinnamon Danish

Score: 5.5 / 10

It looks amazing, but the toppings are too thin. It’s mostly a plain, soft, doughy Danish that’s lightly glazed with cinnamon and sugar. It feels cheap, plain, and simply not worth it.

Released in early October 2024. Found November 2024.


Aldi Bake Shop Pumpkin Pecan Cookies

Score: 7.5 / 10

It’s quite pleasant for a bakery-style cookie. It’s mildly sweet and sports a noticeable, but not overly strong, pumpkin taste, all the while combined with bits of pecans. Together, it’s a nice, unoffending combination that reminds you of fall. I do believe that adding some cream cheese frosting might really elevate these. Texture-wise, they’re soft and slightly chewy, my favorite!

Likely released sometime around 2023 or 2024 for the fall season. Found at Aldi October 2024.


Aldi Bake Shop Cream Cheese Frosted Pumpkin Sugar Cookies

Score: 7.5 / 10

Light, fluffy, a little dry, and a bit crumbly. This texture almost reminds me of Lofthouse cookies. The cookie itself has a traditional pumpkin pastry taste that comes across as semi-sweet. However, the frosting is sugary sweet with a pumpkiny taste, elevating the entire experience Overall, it’s sweet due to the frosting and has a solid pumpkin flavor.

Likely first released around September/October 2023 for the fall season. These also came back in September 2024. Found October 2024.


Aldi Bake Shop Cotton Candy Frosted Cookies

Score: 7.5 / 10

Similar to Lofthouse cookies, but holy moly, these cookies are substantially softer. However, they aren’t as thick feeling. Unfortunately, these aren’t at all cotton candy tasting; instead, the frosting has a super sweet, sugary flavor. Then again, isn’t that what cotton candy is? Also, weirdly, the bottom of these cookies peel.

Not sure of the exact release date. Found early July 2024.


Aldi Bake Shop Pumpkin Snickerdoodle Cookies

Score: 8 / 10

Front box of Aldi Bake Shop Pumpkin Snickerdoodle Cookies.

Wow, these are so thick, chewy, and moist. These cookies, from outside to in, remind me almost of a homemade pumpkin roll; you literally get that pumpkiny texture. I just love it! In terms of sweetness, it’s decently sweet, and there’s also a bold, authentic pumpkin taste. If anything, these need cream cheese frosting!

This is an Aldi exclusive product. Likely released for the fall season. Found November 2023.

  1. Love this deep dive into so many Aldi chocolate! We were big fans of the Cinco De Mayo too. Ahh… you have an Instagram, now it all makes sense! We’ll start following you there, even though YT is our actual home 😁
