FANS of the viral Dubai chocolate are in for a treat as the bar that brought the craze to the UK is set to hit shelves once again.
M&S shoppers will be able to enjoy the popular treat before the month is out.
Dubai chocolate contains a filling of the traditional Arab dessert Knafeh and pistachio.
Knafeh is a spun pastry dough layered with cheese and drenched in sugar syrup.
The chocolate gained popularity online with foodie influencers and ASMR creators due to the satisfying snap it makes when broken.
First created in 2021, the flavour has proven popular with UK shoppers, with stores such as M&S, Lidl, and Morrisons jumping on the bandwagon.
While Lindt launched their own version of the chocolate with various UK retailers, M&S was the first outlet to create their own bar.
And now fans will be able to sink their teeth into the iconic bar once again.
In a post on Facebook, M&S Foodhall Sittingbourne shared the exact date sweet-toothed shoppers can find the chocolate on shelves.
“Something BIG is coming. The best things come to those who wait, right?” the retailer wrote.
“Let us take you back to last summer, when our OG Big Daddy was hailed the UK version of THAT viral chocolate bar.”
The brand went on to joke that their announcement “might just break the internet”.
