Aldi warning as amazing frying pan just like Tom Daley's has been delayed

Remember the year that Tom Daley shared an Instagram snap of himself cooking a full English in a divided pan? It sent Twitter into a frenzy.

It may be six years down the line but Aldi has a four section version of the pan - and it is still proving popular with shoppers keen to get their hands on one.

However the supermarket chain has warned that it could be delayed.

The beauty of the divided frying pan is that you can cook everything in one pan without anything spilling over - so your egg mixture will stay just where you have put it.

Aldi was expected to get a four section version of the pan into its stores on Sunday, January 23, according to some shoppers but a warning on the retailer's website on, Wednesday, January 26, reads "delayed, coming soon".

Aldi says that the delays were part of the ongoing and well-documented disruptions to shipping.

Those eager to snap up one of the coveted pans are being told that "Due to the current disruptions to global shipping, a number of Specialbuys may be delayed. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause."

Shoppers sharing details of the product have been tagging friends and family into posts highlighting that the product will soon be in store.

It is priced at £14.99.

The large divided frying pan is 100% cast aluminium with a griddle section within the four sections. Non-stick, the retailer says is is suitable for all hobs with the exception of induction.

You'll need to keep you eye on Nottingham stores if you want to bag yourself one.
