HOME Bargains shoppers are rushing to buy bags of “Dubai chocolate” after spotting them on shelves.
Bargain hunters are looking to snap up the retailer’s own version of the viral chocolate bar that has taken the internet by storm.
Posting on the Food Finds UK Facebook page, an eagle-eyed shopper said she found the “DuBites” in her local Home Bargains store for £4.
Fellow shoppers have been quick to comment jealous at the find, which is £16 cheaper than the real bar version.
One said: “Uhhhh really need to try these.”
Another commented: “Get in the basket hun.”
Meanwhile, a third and fourth simply said: “OH MY CHRIST” and “OMG NEED.”
Dubai chocolate has surged in popularity since 2021, with social media videos about the sweet snack garnering hundreds of thousands of views.
One recently posted by TikTok user CheyanneKerr, showing her on the hunt for the chocolate bar in a shopping centre in Dubai, received over 50,000 likes.
Shoppers looking to snap up Home Bargains’ take on the sweet sensation will have to visit their local branch to get one as we couldn’t find it on the retailer’s website.
It might be worth checking with your local branch to see if it has any in stock.

We had a quick look online to see what other retailers are selling the chocolate for, but couldn’t find any cheaper than Home Bargains.
Morrisons is selling its own spin on the chocolate bar for £5, for example.
It’s not the first time in recent months Home Bargains shoppers have been rushing to their nearest shop to get their hands on sweet bites.
Chocolate lovers recently found M&M hot chocolate in stores and took to social media to rave about it.
Shoppers have been keen to get their hands on a new Easter egg based on strawberry and cream pencils too.
How to save money at Home Bargains
You’ll want to first start by looking in the right place in your local Home Bargains store.
Tom Church, retail expert from deals website latestdeals.co.uk, previously told The Sun the best offers are usually by the front door in a bid to lure you in.
Next, it’s worth keeping an eye out for Mrs Hinch products which are extremely popular and often reduced in price, he said.
Shop at the right time too, which according to one current worker is first thing in the morning, when stock is fresh and you’re likely to get the best pick of products.
