Aldi Finds February 2026: Here's What You Should Be Grabbing

Weren't we just celebrating the new year, like, yesterday? Time really does fly! As the first month of 2026 rolls over to the second, so do we eagerly anticipate another month of fresh new Aldi finds. While there are some perennially-stocked items that we pick up every time we shop the discount grocer — like affordable boxed cake mix that customers love and Aldi chocolate chips, a favorite baking staple – few happenings in the grocery sphere get us revved up like the monthly roll-out of limited-time products at Aldi. This month, Aldi is slipping a few more Valentine's Day sweets into your basket, kitting out your kitchen in bright colors to invoke an early breath of spring, and equipping you with some basics that you normally can't find in its aisles.

From lovely drinking glasses to Irish cheeses that give us a leg up on our St. Pat's celebrations, Aldi has it going on in the month of February. Peruse these items, taking note of their stock date, and keep a running list of what you might want to pick up on your next few shopping trips! Keep in mind that all prices are accurate as of this writing, but are subject to change based on location. Availability, too, may vary based on where and when you shop. 

There's a staggering number of heart-shaped chocolate boxes sold for Valentine's Day, but give us some heart-shaped macarons, and we'll be happy campers. You'll enjoy a half-dozen macarons per box, which is the ideal amount for a sweethearts' dessert. On the other hand, the raspberry and vanilla flavors are guaranteed to be crowd pleasers, and would look just darling on a tray at your holiday party. 

Specially Selected Heart Shaped Macarons are available on February 4th and retail for $3.89. 

There's a creamy difference between ice cream and gelato, but we aren't thinking about technicalities when we're faced with a scrumptious, grab-and-go sundae that looks like it came straight from a fancy Italian scoop shop. This is another luscious option for sharing with your sweetie on Valentine's Day, or just solo snacking as a special treat. There are three delectable options for gelato cups: cappuccino, chocolate hazelnut, and pistachio. We can't wait to try them all! 

Sundae Shoppe Italian Gelato Cups are available on February 4th and retail for $3.99 per two-pack. 

Frozen ravioli is a versatile, tasty ingredient for a speedy weeknight dinner. We like the way that the smoked mozz in these pasta pockets brings something special to the table, however. Pair 'em with one of the better pasta sauce brands on the shelf and a bagged salad, and you have a yummy meal that won't break the bank or tax your time. Don't have jarred sauce? This filling sounds flavorful enough that some butter and a sprinkle of parm will do. 

Specially Selected Smoked Mozzarella Ravioli is available on February 4th and retails for $2.99 a bag. 

Waffles stuffed with egg, cheese, and meat aren't exactly a new concept — we previously shouted out Nordic waffle breakfast sandwiches – but we doubt that other comers can match Aldi for value. These protein-packed stuffed waffles come in either bacon or sausage varieties, and you get four of them per box for close to what a solo fast food breakfast costs. No waffling about the matter; we gotta try these. 

Breakfast Best Stuffed Waffles are available on February 11th and retail for $5.95 per box. 

We love highly-absorbent, eco-friendly Swedish dish cloths, and these come in four patterns — veggies, fruits, floral, and floral watercolor. Martha Stewart knows a practical way to store kitchen towels, but we might be tempted to display these aesthetic cloths in our kitchen as a way of brightening up the often-gloomy days of late winter. Plus, as is so frequently the case with Aldi, you can't beat the price. 

Crofton Swedish Dish Cloths are available on February 11th and retail for $4.99. 

Paczki, a type of filled Polish donut, is typically eaten in America before Mardi Gras. Fat Tuesday this year falls on February 17th, but we can see ourselves munching on these pastries the whole month long. Aldi's version are filled with lush Bavarian cream and come four to a package. We previously discussed how to keep donuts fresh overnight, but we don't know if these will last 24 hours once you bring them home! (And, before you Google it, the word is pronounced "poonch-key.")

Bake Shop Paczki is available February 11th and retail for $3.96 per package.

Cabrales blue cheese, the world's most expensive cheese, is stored in caves. Aldi's trio of Irish cheese — Irish whiskey, Irish beer, and aged Irish cheddar — are way on the other end of the spectrum in terms of price, and you can find them stored in the fridge case on your next grocery store trip. That doesn't mean they are any less delicious. St. Patrick's Day is still a month away, but we're definitely not waiting for March to dig in!

The Emporium Selection Irish Cheese Truckle Assortment is available on February 18th and retail for $3.99 apiece. 

Inferior trail mixes are mostly peanuts for cost reasons, but that's not the case with this festive assortment that, like Lucky Charms, is also stuffed with marshmallows. Choose between shamrock crème crunch or leprechaun's delight — both are long on sweet treats and will cure your munchies. This trail mix will be as delicious filling a snack bag in a lunch box as it is doled out in a pretty container on a St. Paddy's-themed charcuterie board. 

St. Patrick's Day Trail Mixes are available on February 25th and retail for $4.89 per bag. 

Pretty drinkware is a weakness of ours, and Aldi certainly seems to have our number this month. These attractive, aesthetic marbled glasses come in either tall or short heights, and in three colorways: green, white, and blue. Best of all, they're versatile — just as nice for fancy cocktails as they are your morning cup of juice. All you have to do is brush up on the right way to store your favorite drinking glasses to keep them safe in your cabinet. 

Crofton Confetti Drinkware is available February 25th and retails for $9.99 per two-pack. 

The origin of Irish soda bread is embedded in history. Luckily, you don't need to go down a Wikipedia rabbit hole to appreciate these bread mixes — soda bread and beer bread are both available — that offer savory, hot loaves without a trip to a specialty bakery. These are, again, items that anticipate St. Patrick's Day ... but we are carb lovers who enjoy bread, so you can bet we'll be using these easy, convenient baking kits right away. 

ALDI Irish Soda or Beer Bread Mix are both available February 25th and retail for $2.49 apiece.

The list of unique spices that give your dishes pizzazz is long and varied. Many spices sold whole need to be ground, which means that a spice grinder is a kitchen essential. For right around five bucks, we don't know that you will find a better deal on this tool than Aldi is offering. It's even available in four colors (blue, light blue, black, and white) so that you can pick a shade you like. 

The Crofton Spice Grinder is available February 25th and retails for $4.99.
