Dubai Chocolate Bar (Pack of 5) 500g Kunafa Bars with Pistachio Cream Filling – Luxurious Fix Dubai Chocolate – Best Gifts for Kids, Family & Friend (Pack of 5-100g/Pcs)

It tastes really good, definitely buy again

It’s not very big for the price but it was amazing taste was beautiful

Well, all this hype that I've heard about Dubai Chocolate Bars, I just had to try it for myself, being a self confessed lover of good chocolate. So, I was expecting great things, given the price, a Tenner for 2x 100g bars. On opening the parcel, I was presented with very impressive, classy packaging, which is much bigger than the actual bar within. Then when you open the outer packaging, the bar itself, which is wrapped in silver paper, sits in its own purpose made golden recess, (Think Cleopatra waiting alluringly for Mark Antony to come and RAVISH her upon her four poster bed within her sleep chamber) so you upturn this to release the bar. Then on unwrapping it's silver gown, you are greeted with a subtle chocolatey aroma, and the sight of what best can be described as a BRICK of a chocolate bar. (I'm sure Cleopatra had better contours, at least Liz Taylor portrayed her as such) So, my first time trying, I break off a segment, which reveals the beige green colour filling, not the bright green in the photos, so I am already feeling a little despondent. I take a bite, as these are rather large segments. The chocolate was quite soft, as it had just been delivered, so maybe best served from the refrigerator. I bit into the segment, and instantly heard the crispy kunafa breaking as I did so. I took a moment to taste the chocolate, waiting for it to melt, and coat my tastebuds, but it had a rather unpleasant waxy quality, and didn't melt that well on my tongue, and the taste of Cocoa was conspicuous by its absence, so not a great start. And then came the filling. Well I was expecting great things, a Pungent Pistachio Punch perhaps, with salty overtones, but not a bit of it, sadly. I love pistachios, and so was looking forward to that salty earthy MEATY taste of freshly cracked Pistachios, but I could barely taste Pistachio at all. What I could taste was just a sweet creamy non descript filling with crispy bits, but nothing distinctive at all to enliven or excite my taste buds. So I was left completely underwhelmed by my first experience of Dubai Chocolate. I did like the crispiness of the Kunafa however, but that was the ONLY redeeming aspect for me. There may be better brands out there, but for the price, I expected so much more. I am now left feeling that I have wasted my money, and wishing that I'd just gone to Thornton's, for a half pound of their continental selection, which would have given me more variety, and much greater satisfaction. Well, you live and learn, and I have learned not to shell out my hard earned cash on this concoction that is passing for chocolate again. Packaging - 9/10 Product quality - 3/10 Value - 2/10 And that is me being quite generous, as the tasting experience should have been so much better. I paid a premium expecting a HIGH QUALITY product, not elaborate packaging. But I feel the packaging is what you are paying for here, more than the actual product. Give me Fry's Turkish Delight over this any day of the week, at least that has a nice distinctive flavour. I cannot get my head around all the 4 and 5 star reviews for this product. I can only summise that those people have never tasted REALLY GOOD chocolate before.

It's okay. The texture is weirdly too soft and the chocolate is not very good, it's waxy. The filling is decent but its nowhere near as thick as the pictures. It also doesnt look as good, they advertise it as bright and soft but its just kind of sticky which is okay but not what I expected. Also very small, I expected that but I was really surprised how small it is in real life. It's definitely edible and tastes fine, but low quality and not worth the price even for curiosity, don't bother.

I bought this and another Dubai Chocolate Clone as I had never tasted the official Dubai Viral Chocolate (its not sold outside of Dubai) and wanted to see what all the fuss was about. This and the other chocolate were both delicious however I didnt feel this has as much crunch as the other (not sure if a crunch is accurate to the viral official one) but I like the crunch. This also was not vibrant green in colour but a grey colour which did give me concern to if it was fresh or not. However I paid for it so in my belly it went lol A little pricey too but as the other if you want cheap chocolate then buy those but if you want a treat then this is it. Due to the less crunch and grey interior I thought 3.5-4 star was fair.

Not sure what the craze is for this chocolate. The packaging is lovely making you think this is a luxurious bar of chocolate before you open the packet you are decieved by the size of the package in comparison to the size of the chocolate you actually get. The chocolate is thick and of good quality however the centre reminds me of shredded wheat made into Easter nests we used to make when I was a child (broken shredded wheat biscuits mixed with chocolate sometimes with marshmallow, popped into a cupcake case to look like the nest and then cadbury mini eggs on top) the texture is very similar Tbh you could probably make your own using that instead of the shredded toated filo, with the pistachio and sesame seed paste in chocolate! Anyway for the size and taste its not worth it price I gave some to my 14yr old son and he said it tasted a bit like a Bueno but not as nice and I am inclined to agree.... I wouldn't buy this again and I wouldn't recommend it sadly 😔

Lovely chocolate but very small .wanted more lol looks a massive peice bit it's not

Wow wow wow very tasty, beautifully packaged and the price is absolutely great, I recommend it
