Thomas Gottschalk Criticizes Dubai Chocolate Trend

The 74-year-old former showmaster dismisses the hype around pistachio-filled Dubai chocolate, calling it overly bitter.

Thomas Gottschalk, in his RTL+ podcast 'Die Supernasen,' expressed his dislike for the popular Dubai chocolate trend in Germany.
The chocolate, filled with pistachio cream and a pastry component called 'angel hair,' has gained traction through social media marketing campaigns.
Gottschalk described the chocolate, gifted to him, as 'pretty bitter' and questioned the enthusiasm surrounding pistachio-based treats.
Recent weeks have seen long lines outside stores as retailers limited the availability of Dubai chocolate during its launch phase.
The product's rise in popularity highlights the influence of clever marketing in driving food trends.
