The Dubai Chocolate Trend is Already Over
Video Overview & Insights
Dubai Chocolate is one of those trends that seemingly came out of nowhere, but in the age of the Crumbl cookie it seems anything is possible. From jacked-up prices, crazed overbuying, to false marketing to capitalize on people’s fear of missing out… of course we had to make the video!
I kept seeing it on the shelves and thought about trying it out of curiosity but it was way overpriced. Now they have it reduced to 50p a bar in the bargain shop. 😅. So I bought a few bars. It’s nice but nothing special. Certainly not worth the hype.

I tried it once and found it to be a terribly mediocre treat.

I actually thought this video's title was referring to the trend where models were going to Dubai to play with a different type of chocolate and getting paid large amounts if you know what I mean

Those Crumbl cookies are toxic. Look at the ingredients.

It came, it spawned a food safety warning, it landed at Costco, and no one cares now..

If you want to try the GOOD thing made with Kadaiif - make Künefe or look for a turkish place where they have it. Much better...this is the original usage of the filo-pastry pieces.

Sounds delicious!
@kloveandpeace8290dubai is good
@nyamahaiAre there really people out there who consider the sound of someone's mouth chewing something crunchy while it's open as something pleasant? I immediately smashed the space bar when I saw a mouth on my screen. Now i'm leaving this comment and leaving your video. Never do that again.
@User0000000000000004Mostly agree with the video but there are moments that are so aggressively american that it's sickening like insulting how the filling looks
@flamenamiThis trend is not over at all in Chicagoland. Middle eastern desserts are here to stay in IL and WI and middle eastern coffee shops popping up everywhere in last few years, which is the best place here to get such confections
@abramabejonesDubai Chocolate is nothing but a psyop to distract us from the Doodoo chocolate (porta party) and slavery going on there.
@saminyasir1847I recently had Dubai chocolate but it made my throat go crazy and make my stomach feel off
@Amari-g5kLol, I just bought my first Dubai chocolate bar, a Lindt bar for 99 cents marked down from $6. Lindt makes quality chocolates so if I can buy one for less than a buck then the craze must definitely be over. Anyone know where I can get a crumbl cookie for less than a buck? 😂
@viffer94I like Dubai chocolate I hope it stays once the hype dies down and goes to an actual reasonable price
@Name1536803Actually i tried Dubai chocolate it is good but its not like im going to put it in everything
@chrisplayzunlimitedI don’t find out about trends until someone on YouTube makes a video about it.. I’m not on social media. I tasted this at a local bakery here in San Antonio and it’s meh at best. I’ll save my $9 and buy a half dozen eggs.
@Mario_EsquivelThis is why out generation will own nothing, save nothing and be financially destitute. It's because we waste our money on this shit....
@TreestormI don't want to hear the amount of astronomical sugar there is in this bar.
@KILLERDEVIL13I was doing some research on Dubai chocolate clicked on your video and was shocked to see we have the same last name. 😭 I never find fellow Hildebrands.
@Zen_DVFSYou dont know what your talking about..
@donnalazos4792Thankfully this is not THAT expensive. $20 for a chocolate bar is obscure but out completely out of reach. Buy it, try it, move the fuck on. It's....okay.
@TioshDubai chocolate Matcha labubu 67 baby Gronk Rizzler costco chicken bake
@name1585Oh lord why do people like ASMR. The crunching drives me nuts! Never do that again pls 😹
@censored-k8fI drove from Mojave to Bakersfield, had a dark chocolate Dubai bar, it was freaking amazing. But the milk chocolate version at Love's truck stop was awful
@JoseRamirez-vb1skI tried some a colleague brought back from Dubai. Its a posh Kit Kat
@debbiemoore2747I still havent try dubai chocolate 😆
@1296DTThere is a very simple explanation.
People are stupid.
Glad I did not ever buy it… or a Labubu . If it’s overpriced it’s not worth it !
@jacquiround1193The fact that it’s from Dubai makes me not want it it’s like calling it slave labor chocolate 😂
@Johnny-tq9noI don’t even like postasios
@BrazenBear-zw7kkThe more of your videos I watch, the more I learn about things I have seen in passing and didn't care to pay attention to...but clearly, alot of people gave a shit about.😂
@littlebluelemonstudiotasted a hair of it. was gross and moved on.
@blub-x7wIm glad i haven't consumed any forms of "Dubai" chocolate
@Maranello_HomelandDefenseId rather just have some like kinder buenos or dairy milk
@G.reviewzDude, I love how this thing tastes. Crispy and rich and sweet >w< But I am NOT going to pay that much for just a little bar that barely has any chocolate :D If I'm paying that much, it better be premium pistachio cream, lots of crunch, lots of chocolate and pistachio sauce, and over fresh large strawberries 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
@milesph6905As a person with misophonia I highly appreciate that chewing warning lmao
@cheeseypuff9819Just like the ice bucket challenge and many hipped capitalistic trends, just like the US itself it’s all hipped up
@ABCC528Lindt is now selling $15.00 Dubai chocholate bar. I’ll wait to buy it in 2030 when it’ll cost $3.00
@fondooi tried dubai chocote once when the hype ended... all those influencers wh overreacte trying that thing are bozos, that chocolate was just mid
@ELWESIN-tb4wySo the chocolate bar can arrest me if I eat it? No thanks
@RodaTexi unfortunately do like the combo of chocolate and pistachio, need to find some recipes to incorporate them
@taylorwiththelaysI saw it for the first time at a mini mart in Michigan. I became addicted then friends thought I was following the trend.
@ZacharySahuqueWe had the same overhype on Krispy Kreme doughnuts a few years ago! I did try those and the Dubai chocolate. Neither impressed me!
@sandrabauer9514If yall want it that bad make it at home
@madnessarcade7447That is not knafeh
Knafeh is a full cheese cake type desert
Using just the flaky dough is not knafeh
As an Arab I don’t like this white washing of food
@madnessarcade7447Sticking the name of a city best known for being an insane tempest of massive overconsumption on a candy doesn't make me want it.
