Aldi has introduced a new low calorie ice cream offering to its ever-growing frozen sweet treat selection and fans are already raving about it.
With the UK currently in the middle of a heatwave and 30°C+ temperatures not out of the ordinary, it’s no wonder why everyone’s got ice cream on the brain and now supermarket retailer Aldi is making the warm weather that little bit more bearable with its newest resident to the freezer aisle.
Viennetta has long been a popular dessert of choice in households across the UK and now Aldi is changing the game by selling it on a stick.
The Gianni’s Mini Viennese Ice Cream Bars are described as “a modern, summery twist on the classic Viennetta” and they come in three traditional mouthwatering flavours – Vanilla, Strawberry and Mint.
Amassing thousands of interactions and comments after being posted to Aldi’s social media platforms yesterday, it’s pretty safe to say that these new ice creams have already gone down a treat with shoppers nationwide.
As one person aptly commented: “There’s only one way to save 2020, and that’s by putting a Viennetta on a stick” and we couldn’t agree more.

Each box contains x5 ice creams and will currently set you back just £1.49.
Gianni’s Mini Viennese Ice Cream Bars are currently available to get your hands on at Aldi stores nationwide, but they unfortunately don’t seem to be stocked online at the moment, so you’ll have to act fast and take a trip to your local branch if you want to grab a box or two.
It’s advised that you always check the opening times of your local Aldi store before making any trips and you can do so via the Aldi store finder here.

Commentator Arlo White shows off what the Old Trafford gantry walk looks like
Danny Jones
Ever wondered what it’s like to be up in the gantry in a football stadium, say, Old Trafford? Well, we certainly have.
You see the odd shot of the commentators sat there on the telly from time to time but it never really gives much away either and, at some venues, it’s quite a ways up there. There’s a little bit of allure behind these mysterious parts of footy grounds that most fans will never get to see.
After hours of mindless scrolling on the social media app, we stumbled across the well-known sports commentator‘s channel where he’s been showing off what it’s like to go in the gantry and one of them is his long walk to crow’s nest up at the Theatre of Dreams.
As it turns out, Arlo’s been doing these videos for a couple of years now, revealing how the gantry looks not only at Old Trafford but other big Premier League grounds too, such as down the road at the Etihad, Arsenal’s Emirates Stadium, Tottenham Hotspurs’ sparkly new ground and many more.
Another reason we found ourselves stuck on his TikTok for so long was also because of the other behind-the-scenes details he reveals too, even shedding light on how he prepares for games: note-taking, data sheets, how keeps himself warm up there during those cold nights on comms and so on.
