The ‘Dubai chocolate’ trend gained momentum on social media platforms like TikTok, captivating dessert enthusiasts worldwide.
Its unique combination of flavours has made it a must-try delicacy.
One Facebook user shared their excitement, posting a picture of the chocolate with the caption: “Look what I found in Morrisons this morning was £5 but worth a try”.
Others quickly joined the conversation, expressing their eagerness to locate the treat.
One person commented: “Looked for it last week but they didn’t have it at ours” while another said: “Where was this please? With the normal chocolate.”
Some friends tagged each other, commenting: “I’ll drive us to Morrisons.”
However, not everyone is convinced.
Some shoppers were left disappointed, with one bluntly stating: “It’s vile lol, I don’t know what the fuss is about.”
Another added: “Not nice at all, waste of a fiver.”
Despite the mixed reviews, pistachio-flavoured treats remain a huge trend, with desserts and drinks featuring the nut popping up on menus and supermarket shelves across the UK.
