Fiorella Dubai Chocolate Bar Pistachio, Luxury & Premium Dubai Milk Chocolate Bar Filled with Pistachio Butter & Shredded Knafeh Kadayif, Snacks for Kids & Adults - 7.05 Oz

I was skeptical. I was wary. I was unsure. Over 20$ for a single (albeit hefty) chocolate bar? But given how much I've seen it pop up on social media I figured I could stand to drop the money on it just to satisfy my curiosity. I'm a baker so I have high standards. I don't work with chocolate in bar form much, but I still have really high standards. As a milk chocolate? Perfection. Absolute delight! If the ratio of chocolate was higher, it would absolutely overpower the subtle and delicate flavor of the filling. The filling itself doesn't taste strongly of pistachio, but it's still absolutely there, it's just that pistachio's flavor is very easy to lose when paired with anything else. The creamy texture of the filling, with the crunchy phyllo dough, was a sensory delight! It wasn't a toothy crunch, since it effectively melts instantly, but it is just enough to add some additional noise, texture, and taste. I ate a portion of the bar the moment it arrived, so it was probably too warm, and it started to melt in my fingers instantly. That's entirely my fault because I wasn't willing to wait to try it. No regrets. It may be too sweet for some, and it bordered on that for me, so if you aren't into very sweet desserts I suggest getting the dark chocolate version of this! I'll be trying that next time I feel like indulging.

yummy! yummy! so worth a try❣️

It arrived in terrible condition. It tastes old and stale. Both the outer chocolate and the filling inside were hard and stiff instead of fresh and creamy. The texture was unpleasant, and the flavor was clearly affected. Honestly, it was horrible and not worth the price. Very disappointing. I do not recommend it.

My mom, sister and I wanted to understand the hype around Dubai chocolate. The interior was crispy as it was supposed to be, but the pistachio flavor was less than we were hoping for. Honestly the three of us couldn’t figure out why these have blown up so much other than the exotic sounding name and aesthetics of the interior of the bar. It was fine but we all agreed we would not be paying $20 for another bar. Maybe we’ll attempt to make one at home and see if it’s better fresh.

If you like rich chocolate with the flavor of pistachios, then this is for you. A little too much for the tastebuds for me.
