Macarooz Dubai-Style Chocolate Mac Pops are a new dessert from the brand positioned as an alternative way to enjoy the signature taste and texture of Dubai chocolate.
The cake pops maintain a hybrid formulation that blends the French macaron with a cake pop to achieve a flavorful treat that's inherently convenient to enjoy. The product is crafted with a smooth, creamy center alongside an exterior chocolate coating and a crispy finish to effectively replicate Dubai chocolate in an alternative way. The product is making its way to select Costco locations for a limited time in the Bay Area, Northern California and Nevada with plans for further expansion planned in the months ahead.
Co-Founder Bryce Neeley spoke on the Macarooz Dubai-Style Chocolate Mac Pops saying, "We saw an opportunity to celebrate a globally loved dessert and introduce it to a broader audience in a format that reflects our identity as a brand. Our Mac Pops deliver indulgent, clean-label options that continue to stand out in both foodservice and retail environments.”
