Aldi is set to launch a range of savoury Easter treats for those who prefer alternatives to chocolate this month.
The new offerings, available in stores from April 14, include Easter Bao Buns priced at £2.99 and Emporium Easter Cheese Truckles for just 99p.
The Easter Bao Buns feature adorable seasonal designs including "irresistible" chicks, bunnies and hot cross buns.
This savoury collection provides a welcome option for shoppers without a sweet tooth during the traditionally chocolate-heavy Easter period.

The pan-Asian-inspired bao buns and variety of cheese truckles offer something different for Easter gatherings and family meals.
Giving Easter a pan-Asian twist, Aldi's brand-new Easter Bao Buns come in three authentic flavours with charming Easter designs. The Hoisin Veg Hot Cross Bun Bao Buns combine mixed vegetables with a rich, umami hoisin sauce in a traditional Easter hot cross bun design.
For those preferring a tangier option, the Sweet and Sour Veg Chick Bao Buns feature a cute Easter chick design.
Perhaps most eye-catching are the Sriracha Prawn Bunny Bao Buns, which deliver a spicy kick with succulent prawns wrapped in an adorable Easter bunny-shaped bun.
Each pack contains 160g of the festive bao buns for £2.99. Also perfect for those who would rather not opt for Easter chocolate is Aldi's Emporium Easter Cheese Truckles.
Priced at just 99p for 100g, these cheese truckles come in an array of exciting flavours to satisfy every tastebud.
Shoppers can choose from the mild, herby Double Gloucester with Onion & Chive or the bold and intense Smoky Cheddar.
For those who prefer sweeter notes, there's the Wensleydale with Cranberry option. Spice lovers can opt for the Red Leicester with Chilli, while those who enjoy caramelised flavours will appreciate the caramelised onion variety.
