Dubai-Inspired Pistachio Cream Trend Takes Europe by Storm
The surge in demand for pistachio cream is driven by the popularity of Dubai-themed desserts on social media.
- Pascal Walch, CEO of dessert wholesaler JM Posner, reports selling six tons of pistachio cream weekly, a tenfold increase in production over two months.
- Dubai-themed desserts, especially the Dubai chocolate filled with pistachio cream, have become a sensation on platforms like Instagram and TikTok.
- To manage demand, purchase limits have been set, restricting online buyers to four tubs of pistachio cream.
- The pistachio cream, sourced from Sicilian pistachios, is used in various desserts, including Dubai tiramisu, ice cream, and cheesecake.
- The Dubai chocolate, originally from Fix Dessert Chocolatier, is now sold in Lindt Boutique Stores across Germany, leading to long queues and high resale prices online.
