There’s nothing very special going on here.  These were on the shelf for what used to be ALDI’s Oktoberfest, but in September.  That generally means they won’t be around until next spring (Mayfest?) and next autumn.  As stated on the label these are shortbread cookies.  They’re a little on the sweetish side for shortbread.  Additionally, as you can see, they’re half coated with coconut sprinkled milk chocolate.  If you like shortbread cookies, and shortbread crumbs on your shirt, blouse or sweater, these will suffice just as well as any.

Price $1.99 per box (12 cookies)       Calories  140 per cookie

      Colleen, These are/were available at Aldi. Unfortunately they’re not always available. They’re usually part of Aldi’s Oktoberfest or Maifest celebrations. And then are only available for around a week. More unfortunately, Aldi seems to have fewer German items available during these weeks, so you may not find them at all. Look for them at Aldi around late September or late April.

    These cookies are fantastic, texture, taste and pricing! However I have not been able to find them in the Aldi shelves in recent weeks.

    Please advise!

    With thanks,
    Susan

    Most likely these are Oktoberfest or Maifest specials. If so, their availability would be limited to these two very brief periods. Try asking a store manager if these will be back on the shelves again.

        Thanks, I’ve done that, am told “they never know”. I’ll keep checking, meantime they are for sale on Amazon, very pricey however.

        Thanks for the information. The Maifest promotions should be coming up in the next few weeks. Hopefully they’ll include the cookies.

    I really liked the taste. The cookies didn’t seem so sweet either. The crumbs were no big deal. I am going to get more. I did not know they were seasonal.

      Thanks for adding your comments. Yes, unfortunately many of the Deutsche Kuchen products are seasonal, usually twice a year. Spring is one of those times. These may make a reappearance in the next few weeks?

    I found these to be quite delightful. Made the way cookies were made years ago. Buttery,semi sweet, with a nice touch of coconut. I have been looking for more, I haven’t found them yet. Enjoy Cj

      Thanks for your thoughts. My guess is, these are a seasonal item. Further guessing, they probably won’t reappear until around next Spring. Glad you enjoyed them.

    Medicinal wine that causes a “scrunch face” and “nothing very special” cookies that will “suffice just as well as any” – hope next review leads to something I might want to try. 🙂
