Morrisons has released its own version of the social media-popularized Dubai Chocolate Bar, aiming to bring the treat to new audiences based in the UK. Filled with a pistachio creme mixture, crunchy Kadayif pastry, and wrapped in a milk chocolate layer, these cake bars are priced at £4 each and are created by the brand Flair.
"Experience the rich, authentic pistachio paste harmoniously mixed with delicately baked kunafa, nestled on a sumptuous bed of soft chocolate cake, all enrobed in luscious chocolate. Each bite offers a decadent, unforgettable taste adventure that's as unique as it is addictive," Morrisons said in a statement.
