In the Venn diagram of candy lovers and the chronically online, those in the middle intersection are particularly enamored by viral food trends and their ability to provoke excitement and curiosity. How many kinds of Swedish candy are there? Does a bowl of tiny pancakes make cereal? Why is this chocolate bar so expensive?<\/p>\n
I overheard a guy at Walmart ask the last question out loud as he passed the display of Lindt Dubai Style Chocolate bars. At nearly $15 for a 5.3 oz bar, Lindt\u2019s newest product boasts costly ingredients, eye-catching green packaging, and generally stylish vibe. Invented by a Dubai chocolatier and popularized by social media, Dubai chocolate is a milk chocolate shell filled with sweet pistachio cream and kadayif, or shredded cooked phyllo pastry. Lindt\u2019s riff on the sought-after confection consists of Swiss milk chocolate made in Germany, with the addition of almonds, hazelnuts, and sugared pistachios in the filling.<\/p>\n
So, is the bar worth the splurge? I guess you could say I\u2019m still dubai-ous.<\/p>\n
Look, I like Dubai chocolate, I like Lindt chocolate, and I\u2019ve often wondered if I\u2019m singlehandedly putting my local candy store owner\u2019s children through college. Despite these truths, Lindt\u2019s Dubai Style Chocolate Bar left me unimpressed.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The milk chocolate itself is wonderful\u2014lushly silky, sweet, and creamy, with notes of caramel and vanilla that make its flavor distinctive.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The filling felt like a letdown, especially compared to the viral photos of Dubai chocolate that depict overflowing green goo like something out of a Nickelodeon cartoon. (Did the Rugrats Reptar Bar foretell Dubai chocolate? Discuss.) Lindt\u2019s filling is a modest layer of sweetened pistachio paste rich with texture: gritty bits of nuts and threads of phyllo that remind me of crispy shredded wheat cereal. It tastes nutty, salty, and good, but the flavor is a mixed medley of almond, hazelnut, and pistachio\u2014the latter of which should be the star. In the context of the Dubai trend, the almonds and hazelnuts add more filler than filling.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The milk chocolate outshines the filling. Even with a better chocolate-to-filling ratio, the filling would benefit from a substantial addition of pistachio cream to boost the pistachio flavor, balance creamy and crispy textures, and stand a chance against the chocolate\u2019s unique taste.<\/p>\n
The Lindt Dubai Style Chocolate Bar is difficult to rate because, while a nutty bar of Swiss chocolate is always a pleasure, it does not fulfill the creamy, crispy, and pistachio-y promises of Dubai chocolate that\u2014to some\u2014justify the hefty price tag. If you are willing to part with the green in your wallet, look for a brand that provides more green filling in its chocolate.<\/p>\n
