Best Dubai Chocolate Treat We Tried in 2025

Along with hot honey, Dubai chocolate was the flavor of 2025. There was Dubai chocolate mochi ice cream, Dubai chocolate pancakes, Dubai chocolate cookies, and there’s even a Dubai chocolate liqueur on the way. My gut says it’s not going to stop the second the clock ticks over to 2026. We’re living in a Dubai chocolate world, now. So grab some of this popcorn—the best Dubai chocolate thing we tasted in 2025—and enjoy.

Belle’s Gourmet Dubai Chocolate Popcorn

World Market

We have our opinions on the best Dubai chocolate bar that you can actually get in the U.S. (no, it’s not the limited edition Hershey’s Dubai chocolate bar, although we did manage to score a taste), but the best Dubai chocolate-flavored snack of the year was this popcorn. It’s coated in pistachio butter and milk chocolate, and mixed with crispy kadayıf. It’s so good, it even won over Sporked’s popcorn-hating Griffin Parker.

About the Author

Hi! I’m the editor-in-chief of Sporked. I will never turn down a fresh-shucked oyster but I’ll also leap at whatever new product Reese’s releases and I love a Tostitos Hint of Lime, even if there is no actual lime in the ingredients. Why you should trust me: I have been writing about food and beverages for well over a decade and am an avid at-home cook and snacker. I began my career writing about fine dining and recipes, moved into cocktails and spirits, and now I talk about groceries. If you can eat it or drink it, I’ve probably written about it. What I buy every week: Trader Joe’s dried okra. Appleton Farms prosciutto from Aldi. Some sort of Trader Joe’s cheese (I’m into the aged gouda at the moment). Frozen waffles (usually the Eggo Cinnamon Toast Minis). Spindrift water (loving the Cosmopolitan right now). Favorite ranking: Smoked salmon. Imagine me as Scrooge McDuck but instead of coins I’m diving into a vault of slippery smoked salmon slices. Pure joy. I also found some real steals in that taste test! Least favorite ranking: Canned oysters. I had such high hopes for this but it quickly became a chore. The kitchen smelled like an uncleaned aquarium.
