SHOPPERS can’t get enough of Dubai-style chocolate at the minute, so we’ve searched for where you can get it cheapest.
The Middle Eastern delicacy combines milk chocolate with pistachio paste and Kadayif – crunchy shredded pastry dough.
It has taken the internet by storm with shoppers willing to pay well over the odds to get their hands on it.
Now, major UK retailers and supermarkets are cashing in and launching different versions of the viral snack in stores and online.
Some, including Waitrose and Lidl, have even had to impose purchase limits on theirs so there’s enough to go around.
But where can you get the chocolate cheapest this week? We’ve rounded up the best options.
It’s worth bearing in mind, our list is not exhaustive and you may find bars cheaper at your local supermarket or retailer.
Remember to always use price comparison websites like Trolley and Price Spy to find which retailers are selling any product for the cheapest.
You can also use the Google Shopping/Product tab to quickly scour the internet to see what chains are selling something for too.

You won’t find it on sale online either.
Lidl
Lidl first launched its dupe of Dubai chocolate on TikTok shop, with 6,000 bars selling out in 72 minutes.
The retailer is now selling the J.D. Gross bars in stores across the UK, with Lidl Plus customers able to snag one for £3.99.

There’s also a purchase limit of two per shopper.
Meanwhile, you can’t order the bar online but can find your nearest store by visiting lidl.co.uk/c/store-finder/s10023098.
Morrisons
Morrisons is selling larger 100g bars of Bolci Dubai-style chocolate for just £5.
Shoppers can find the bar online but bear in mind you’ll have to pay a delivery charge.
Customers have left plenty of five star reviews for the bar on Morrisons’s website.
One branded the bar “gorgeous” while another said it was “pricey but worth it for a treat”.
Those with a bit more cash in the bank might be keen on buying Lindt’s Dubai-style chocolate.
It’s on sale at Waitrose, Sainsbury’s Ocado and direct off the Lindt website for £10.
