The discount store is a more affordable way to try the viral Middle Eastern treat which has taken over the internet
Home Bargains shoppers can get their hands on a cheaper version of the viral ‘Dubai chocolate’. The discount store has released an affordable version that people are racing to snap up whilst stocks last.
The original “Dubai Chocolate Bar”, officially named “Can’t Get Knafeh Of It”, was made by Dubai-based chocolatier Fix Dessert. This treat, which gained popularity on TikTok, is a fusion of milk chocolate filled with pistachio cream and a crispy kataifi (shredded phyllo pastry) filling.
Whilst the original comes as one whole decedent bar, the Home Bargains pouches offer a bite-sized version. These are perfect for sharing or simply pacing yourself.
Fans will need to look out for Wawi Dubites Dubai Style Pistachio Chocolate. You can see what they look like online here.
These green bags should be available in the sweet aisles of your nearest store and they’ll cost you £3.99. But, with videos flooding TikTok of people desperate to try it for themselves, you’d better be quick if you want the chance to get some.
Home Bargains shared the product on its social feed which gained lots of positive comments and more interest from snack hunters. A spokesperson wrote: “Stop what your doing – Dubai chocolate has landed in store!”
One shopper said: “It’s so good for only £3.99!” Another added: “These are unreal. So tasty!” A third admitted: “We’ve already gone through four packs! It’s so delicious!”
Someone else commented with a “game changing” alternative way to try the treat. They wrote: “Warm them in the microwave so they go really soft. So much nicer!”
However, not all shoppers were convinced. One claimed: “I brought 5 packs I returned the other 4. Its more like truffles with a hint of pistachio but nothing like the actual Dubai fix chocolate trust me I ran to grab them and was disappointed!”
Another wrote: “It tastes okay but nothing like the real Dubai chocolate!” The trend has called for other brands to create their own version of the popular chocolate bar.
You can get Lindt bars for £10, and supermarket chain Lidl will soon be selling a take on the sweet treat exclusively via TikTok Shop from March 19. You can get your fix at Home Bargains whilst stocks last.
