Review of Aldi's truffle Pate

Updated: Feb 5, 2023


Its not too bad, but should you use it?

Each summer, Aldi showcases various truffle items in its special aisle. We've decided to give you a taste test and review of truffle pate, priced under $10. Want to find out what they taste like? Check out our video below.

Note: If you sell these kinds of products, you might not enjoy our review.



The 2022 - 23 European truffle harvest continues.


Highlights

  • Harvests of the while Alba have all but finished.

  • Harvests of the black Perigord continue with prices starting to rise for Valentine's day.


The white Alba truffle

None of the suppliers we contacted this week had any Alba truffle. Season over!


The black Perigord truffle

In Europe the truffle season continues to be tough on producers.


Speaking to our suppliers, there appears to be a variation in prices opening up across capital cities at the moment. Up in Brisbane you should be able to get truffle between $2.10 and $2.80 depending on size and grade. In Sydney they might be as high as $4. Love is well and truly in the air ahead of Valentine's in the harbor city. Our Melbourne contact mentioned they will not be supplying truffle this week but do check next week.
