Aldi’s Easter hot cross bun range includes a Belgian white chocolate flavour

Aldi is already gearing up for Easter with no less than seven different varieties of hot cross bun on offer - including some unusual combinations.

Easter may still be two months away with it being a late one this year, but that doesn't mean we can't start indulging in our favourite sweet treats in preparation for the big day.

From traditional buns to sticky toffee pudding and rhubarb and custard, if you've got a sweet tooth, you're likely to want to give them a go.

However, some shoppers may find the flavours a bit too left-field, and the flavours are bound to stir up those who believe only 'traditional' buns will do, reports MEN.

If a flavour doesn't tickle your pickle, don't buy it, but if it does, tuck in!
