It’s been trending around the world since last summer, and now the Dubai chocolate craze has reached the 863.
If you haven’t heard of this trendy treat, it’s a chocolate bar with a pistachio and knafeh (pastry dough layered with cheese and soaked in a sugar-based syrup) filling. Here’s where you can find it around Lakeland:
Rogue Coffee | Bars flown in from the United Arab Emirates are flying off the shelves at this cafe. Try them filled with pistachio, lotus, or peanut butter + caramel.
Choco Berries | Find this booth at downtown events and the farmers market for Belgian chocolate-covered strawberries topped with pistachios and knafeh.
This drink is only on Pour Bear’s menu for a limited time, so get to sippin’.

We’re going nuts for these locally made bars.
