Aldi is known for its amazing Specialbuys events, with weekly offers on everything from baby essentials to furniture. But the budget supermarket may have outdone itself with its latest offering - a range of cast iron cookware similar to Le Creuset, but at a tenth of the price.

While shoppers could expect to spend hundreds on a range of cookware such as casserole dishes, tagines and frying pans, anyone whose budget doesn't quite stretch to the premium products can still get the look for a whole lot less, as every piece in the collection costs under £25.

The stylish range includes both deep and shallow casserole dishes, a large tagine, cast iron roaster, frying pan, skillet, grill tray, silicone double oven glove and mixed assortment of stoneware, allowing shoppers to kit out the kitchen for less than £70 for the key pieces - a saving of £644 compared to buying similar cookware from Le Creuset.

Prices start at £3.49, rising to £24.99 for a casserole dish - but you could expect to pay as much as £295 for a similar dish from a premium brand. The range will also be available in three stylish colours, your choice of cream, grey and red.

Just like any of the supermarket's Specialbuys, these pieces will only be available for a limited time and are sure to be a hit with savvy shoppers, so you'll want to get in quick. The collection is available to pre-order from 16 September and pick up in stores and online from 20 September.

The leading supermarkets have all started to launch their own trend-inspired homeware lines for customers to update their homes while doing their weekly shop. Aldi has previously launched a line of copper saucepans inspired by a similar collection at John Lewis, but at a fraction of the price, as well as selling a rocking chair for a baby's nursery that sold out within one minute of going on sale in Australia.
