Aldi shoppers are emptying shelves for a £3.49 snack that tastes "unreal".
The Wao Mochi Balls have proved a huge hit with customers with 7.6m sold last year. Aldi currently sells five flavours - the most of any UK supermarket.
Aldi launched two new flavours earlier this year. The cheesecake mochi balls, feature a creamy vanilla ice cream filling wrapped around a sweet strawberry sauce centre. The Wao caramel mochi balls combine smooth caramel ice cream with a gooey sauce centre.
