Aldi shoppers, mark your calendars: September 11 just became a very important dip day. Two brand-new Park Street Deli dips are dropping in the refrigerated case, and they’re bringing a sweet-meets-spicy combo we did not know we needed on a cracker. Cranberry Jalapeño and Hot Honey are joining the lineup at $2.79 for an 8-ounce tub, and if Aldi’s track record with limited-edition dips is any indication, these are going to fly off shelves fast.
What’s actually in these tubs
The Cranberry Jalapeño Dip is the one to know about first — it’s actually a returning favorite that’s earned a real reputation. Per Aldi’s own product description, it “combines the sweet tartness of cranberries with a spicy kick from jalapeños,” and shoppers online back that up. This dip previously landed the #2 spot in a ranking of every Aldi dip, second only to the brand’s spinach artichoke. One Instagram reviewer put it best after finishing an entire tub in one sitting: “It is SERIOUSLY that good.”
Then there’s the newer sibling, Hot Honey Dip, riding the hot honey wave that’s taken over everything from pizza to fried chicken this year. Expect a sweet-heat profile built for drizzling, dunking, and basically ruining your appetite before dinner because you can’t stop eating it straight off a spoon.
“A little bit tangy, a little bit hot, and a little bit creamy… it layers all these sensations into a single recipe that seems award-worthy.”
How to actually use them
Crackers are the obvious move, but don’t stop there. The Cranberry Jalapeño Dip works as a sandwich spread that adds a jolt of spice and sweet tang to turkey or ham, and it’s an easy win on pita chips, pretzels, or spooned over warm roasted veggies. The Hot Honey Dip is begging to be paired with something salty and crunchy — think fried cheese curds, potato chips, or even folded into a grilled cheese right before it hits the pan.
If you’re already stocking up for fall entertaining, these two dips slot in perfectly next to the other cozy Aldi fall finds hitting shelves this month. And if spreads are your thing, they’re basically the savory counterpart to the Berryhill Spread that just landed a few weeks back.
Why you shouldn’t wait
Both of these are labeled limited edition, which in Aldi speak means “here today, sold out by the weekend.” The retailer’s Aldi Finds section has a well-earned reputation for disappearing fast, and seasonal dips in particular tend to vanish the moment word gets around on social media. At $2.79 each, grabbing both flavors is barely a $6 gamble for what could be your new go-to party appetizer — and it’s a lot cheaper than the specialty dip prices you’ll find at other grocers.
Pair either one with the pesto from our post on Aldi’s $2.75 Priano Calabrese Pesto for an instant appetizer board that costs less than $10 total and looks like you tried way harder than you did.
The bottom line
Two new Park Street Deli dips hit Aldi shelves on September 11 for $2.79 each: a returning fan-favorite Cranberry Jalapeño and a brand-new Hot Honey. Both are limited edition, both are begging to headline your next snack board, and both are gone the second Aldi decides to move on to the next Find. Get to your local Aldi early and grab a couple of tubs of each — your crackers will thank you.
