Crush Dubai Pistachio Chocolate Bar - 210 g | Elegant Gift | Stuffed with a Unique Blend of Toasted Katafi, Pistachio Cream & Tahini | A New Luxury Twist on the Traditional Knafeh Dessert

Exquisite Gift set of Chocolate and comes with a lovely Crush, Gift Bag too.Is very nicely presented and lovely wrapped up, and the chocolate tasted so good, it felt like a luxury bar and really thick slab too.Not being a fan of pistachio, it wasn't too bad either i still enjoyed it.The pistachio comes with the green foiled wrap around it.

This bar is a proper treat, the blend of pistachio cream, tahini, and crispy kataifi is really unusual but totally works. It feels rich, indulgent, and has a lovely texture mix of smooth and crunchy. You can tell it’s high quality from the packaging to the taste. Makes a great gift, though I’ll admit I kept it all to myself. Would absolutely buy again when I want something special.Melted very easily though!

Firstly, for anyone anticipating a thick slab of chocolate with a pistachio flavouring, you need to manage your expectations because this is not what Dubai chocolate is! This is a version of the viral Dubai chocolate and it comes really nicely packaged with its own matching gift bag.The chocolate shell is decorated nicely and the taste is fairly average with a thinner and sweeter consistency than UK chocolate (don’t expect it to be comparable to Cadbury or Galaxy!), but I was a bit disappointed that it didn’t have that snap when breaking it open.The filling was a mix of knafeh and pistachio cream and it was quite soft without any of the crunch I expected from the knafeh pastry. It was sweet but there wasn’t really that much flavour to it either.Overall, it was OK but certainly not the best Dubai chocolate I’ve tried. The price is also high but I presume you’re paying for authenticity and shipping as this claims to be made in Dubai. If you just want an introduction to this type of chocolate then there are other supermarket versions which are a lot cheaper.

So, let me just take you through the steps as they happened.Arrives well package in a sturdy box with extra protection inside.The bar outer wrapping is really colourful (see photo) and comes with a matching gift bag both with the words Crush on.The bar itself felt nice and chunky, an above average thickness.Take the outer wrapper off and you are met with a wow golden foil that give the impression of that famous Chocolate factory with the golden ticket.Unwrap the foil and you are met with a really chunky bar drizzled in colours (see photo)I'm a big chocolate fan so at this point my mouth was watering - broke the end section off - surprised that it felt very light to break off - not a tough crack like I was expecting - it broke very softly more like a piece of fruit than a bar of chocolate.I could see the filling (see photo) made of pistachio and tahini - and then I bit into it .....drum roll... oh, is that it - it tasted very average - no burst of any flavour, no crunch - disappointing given the build up.I have eaten tons of chocolate in my lifetime covering the majority of types, consistencies, flavours and this one just tasted average - and then when you consider the price circa £28 , I was left wondering what all the hype was about.I thought maybe I had not experienced it at its best because it arrived on a warm day with no ice/cooling packing so I popped it in the fridge for 24 hours - expecting a wow the next day - but nope - still tasted average - I even went out and bought a different chocolate bar just to check if my taste buds had failed.The taste is 3 stars but the cost drops it a star.Sorry I dont get the hype with this bar - maybe I need to try a different brand.

Really nice quality chocolate with a crunchy inside. The bar looks modern with various colours. Comes gift wrapped.

I'm sorry to say that this product does not appear to conform to the following UK food labelling and packaging requirements:*If your food or drink product has 2 or more ingredients (including any additives), you must list them all. Ingredients must be listed in order of weight, with the main ingredient first.*You must highlight allergens on the label using a different font, style or background colour. You must also list them in the ingredients.This bar of Crush Dubai chocolate with pistachio gives (barely legible) nutrition facts, but the ingredients are listed as "pistachios, kunafa, butter vegetable, filling pistachio, chocolate, Sesame Tahini", and the allergen statement is also inadequate.Although I like to know what's in anything I eat, and always read ingredients lists, I did try this chocolate, and found it far too sweet, with a cloying, perfume-like flavour. The chocolate covering is very thin and pale - the cocoa percentage must be very low. When I ordered it, the price was a ridiculous £27.99 - it's now £19.99 which is still a joke. It's a long time since I've felt so disappointed - and frankly, cross - about any product.

The taste was good and a crunch. Inside doesn't melt very much just outside gets soft. Thick chocolate with design. Family friendly flavours for all ages

This is the closest to real “Dubai” chocolate. These are a very hefty weight, very thick and come in very quirky packaging that come with a gift bag. This specific bar has a great pistachio flavour with a nutty crunch. I do believe the price is a little high, although this is a larger than normal chocolate bar and it does come very well packaged. If you are a chocolate connoisseur, this is not the thing for you as the chocolate is, in my opinion, not the highest of quality however it has come from Saudi Arabia so will have been designed to fit with the temperatures there. This is a very nice thing to have as a treat, if you want to just try “Dubai” chocolate, then I’d try a cheaper alternative.
