The Dubai chocolate bar trend has spawned a lot of copies of varying quality, so I looked into Ceres Gourmet's take: the Dubai Chocolate Bar - Pistachio & Kataifi, priced at $13.00.
Ceres Gourmet handcrafts this bar with rich European pistachio paste and crunchy roasted kataifi (shredded phyllo pastry), enveloped in your choice of premium milk or dark chocolate. It's a direct take on the viral original recipe rather than a generic pistachio chocolate bar with different branding.
The combination of paste and kataifi is what makes the original Dubai chocolate bar concept work — smooth pistachio contrast against a crunchy, toasted texture — and Ceres Gourmet leans into European pistachio paste specifically rather than a cheaper nut-butter substitute. Offering a choice between milk and dark chocolate is a nice touch for people who find the original's dark-chocolate shell too bitter, or conversely want a more intense cocoa contrast against the sweet filling.
For a genuine take on the viral pistachio-kataifi chocolate trend, this bar delivers on the core recipe. Check out Ceres Gourmet for this bar and their wider Dubai-chocolate lineup. Browse Ceres Gourmet's full lineup for current pricing.
