Overview

• Home Bargains began selling Dubai Chocolate Cookies for £1.25 on May 8, making them the latest addition to its Dubai-inspired product line.
• The cookies feature milk chocolate biscuits with a pistachio cream filling, taking inspiration from the viral 'Can't Get Knafeh Of It' bar by Fix Dessert Chocolatier.
• Iceland introduced a similar product in April, priced at £2 per pack, making Home Bargains' offering significantly cheaper.
• The original Dubai Chocolate Bar, popularized on TikTok, combines pistachio cream and crispy kataifi pastry, drawing from Middle Eastern dessert traditions.
• Shoppers are divided on the new cookies, praising affordability but critiquing the pistachio flavor for being too weak.
