ALDI LAUNCHES PREMIUM CHRISTMAS SEAFOOD RANGE  

30 September, 2025

This Christmas, Aldi is making waves with a tide of luxurious, responsibly sourced seafood with prices at incredibly low prices. From decadent lobster centrepieces to festive smoked salmon, shoppers can dive into the innovative range from as little as £1.49. 

Starters & Sides: 

Shoppers seeking pure indulgence will love Aldi’s NEW Specially Selected The Ultimate Thermidor Sharing Seafood Ramekin (£5.49, 260g). This dish combines prawns, juicy red shrimp and tender scallops in a rich, velvety tomato-based sauce, infused with brandy and white wine and a savoury tangy cheese note. Finished with golden parmesan, fragrant parsley and a hint of paprika — it’s the perfect festive appetiser.  

Aldi’s NEW Specially Selected Smoked Salmon Rolled Terrines (£3.99, 120g) bring a swirl of colour and flavour. Shoppers can relish in beetroot and orange for a rich, seasonal sweetness, and lemon and herb for a fresh, zesty twist. Wrapped in responsibly sourced Scottish salmon, oak-smoked and carefully matured, these tasty terrines are perfect for Christmas entertaining. 

Aldi’s NEW Specially Selected Lobster Mac & Cheese (£6.99, 500g) takes classic comfort to decadent new heights. Al dente macaroni is folded through a smooth, creamy cheese sauce with a touch of mustard and white wine, then loaded with tender lobster and sweet, succulent king prawns. Topped with a crunchy cheddar and parsley crumb — it’s a festive favourite in the making. 

Those looking to put on one shell of a spread will want to showcase Aldi’s irresistible Specially Selected Lobster Tails (£12.99, 254g). Back by popular demand, these sweet and succulent shellfish tails are available in lemon & Prosecco and garlic & herb.  

Nobody can go wrong with Aldi’s staple Christmas classic — Specially Selected Smoked Salmon (£3.09, 100g). RSPCA Assured and traditionally cured before being oak-smoked, it’s slowly matured to unlock a deep, rounded flavour, excellent for festive canapés, starters or platters to share. 

Alternatively, shoppers can opt for Aldi’s Specially Selected Whisky Infused Orange & Dill Smoked Salmon (£3.79, 100g) — a lavish addition to the table that is sure to impress guests alongside the Specially Selected Christmas Cured Smoked Salmon (£3.79, 100g) which makes the perfect accompaniment to a Christmas breakfast or party spread with its festively red hue.  

Festive platters will be elevated with the return of Aldi’s Specially Selected The Ultimate Himalayan Scottish Salt Aged Smoked Salmon (£3.99,100g). Oak-smoked and cured with a delicate salt and sugar blend, then matured in a Himalayan salt vault, it delivers a beautifully rich, melt-in-the-mouth flavour with every slice. 

And for a final showstopping starter, Aldi’s returning Specially Selected The Ultimate Lobster, Prawn and Crayfish Cocktail Pots (£4.49, 180g) offer a top-tier twist on a British classic. A crowd-pleasing combo of prawn cocktail elevated with succulent lobster, tender crayfish and a zesty, creamy cocktail sauce infused with hints of brand, lemon and pepper. 

Mains: 

Wrapped in golden, buttery pastry, Aldi’s NEW Specially Selected The Ultimate Salmon Wellington (£12.99, 725g) is a true Christmas showpiece. Featuring tender salmon coated in a rich champagne sauce, the wellington offers an indulgent centrepiece that’s as impressive on the table as it is on the taste buds. 

For a hearty yet luxurious winter warmer, Aldi’s NEW Specially Selected Three Fish Roast (£6.99, 500g) combines flaky cod, succulent salmon and smoky haddock in a decadent cheddar cheese and Sauvignon Blanc sauce, topped with crispy breadcrumbs. 

Shoppers can toast to the season in style with Aldi’s Specially Selected Whole Salmon (2-3kg). Responsibly sourced fresh Atlantic salmon, tender and flaky, delivers a pure, delicate flavour — a stunning centrepiece that’s perfect for festive celebrations. 

Back by popular demand, Aldi’s Specially Selected Dressed Crab (£5.49, 140g) brings a true taste of the sea to the Christmas table. Combining delicate white meat that is light, sweet and gently salted with rich brown meat for a deeper, savoury flavour, this Devon crab is traditionally pot caught made for a perfectly balanced seafood treat with a luxurious festive edge.
