Aldi Rose Cones Are My Ice Cream Of Choice this Summer

It’s not beauty but let’s chat Aldi Rose Cones, shall we? I remember last year I made my boyfriend drive all over New York trying to locate these Aldi’s Rose Ice Cream Cones! They released around Mother’s Day and I could not locate them to save my life. I love pretty things. These were pretty. I needed them in my life!

But it wasn’t happening…!

We never did find them.

Until now!

Last week, someone on Tiktok was all “THE ALDI ROSE CONES ARE BACK!” and I hightailed it over to the local Aldi to look and low and behind not only was there the Strawberry & Cream Rose Bones but also, a new flavor, Chocolate Hazelnut & Vanilla Rose Cones.

I quickly snatched up two boxes of each flavor and ran quickly for the register in the fear someone would grab my treasure from me. Each box contains 4 contains for $3.49 which works out to around .87 cents a cone. Seemed a bargain to me.

Now, I should say I love Neapolitan Ice Cream but I don’t really like Strawberry Ice Cream alone. But since the strawberry cones had vanilla ice cream and a chocolate cone I figured they might just fall into the realms of Neapolitan. I got home and I instantly decided I needed to try both. There were no counting calories this day! I was all about inhaling these as fast as I could.

My favorite was surprisingly the Strawberries & Cream flavor. Each cone is shaped like a little rose! It’s adorable. The frosting, as I call it, is a light, fluffy consistency with a whipped text that reminds me of the icing off a Carvel Ice Cream (if you know, you know as I realize not everyone has a Carvel readily available! It’s very much a New York institution!) The “rose” is made up of this interesting ice cream frosting and has a light, not too sweet strawberry flavor. Under that you’ll find a nice, soft vanilla ice cream that has a delicious strawberry ribbon of jam running through it. Again, it’s not too sweet but has a perfectly balanced taste of vanilla and strawberry! The chocolate cone was crunchy and delicious and a nice compliment to the vanilla and strawberry ice cream which gave it that perfect Neapolitan taste. Of course, there’s a happy ending and the bottom of the cone contains a yummy dollop of chocolate.

Chocolate Hazelnut & Vanilla Rose Cone were just as delicious but not as flavorful as the strawberry ones. I didn’t get much hazelnut here! It’s just a regular chocolate/vanilla ice cream cone! Again, we have the same delicious soft, whipped frosting layer making up the rose with a bottom layer of delicious, soft ice cream! The cone is chocolate and also, includes that dollop of yummy, hard chocolate at the very tip as you put that last bite into your mouth. This flavor was a little uneventful compared to how interesting the Strawberries and Cream one was but still delicious nonetheless.

I felt like glutton getting two boxes of each flavor but honestly, they are so good, I don’t regret it at all!

I believe these are seasonal! If you can, HURRY to your local Aldi as I don’t think they’ll stick around!
