Some shoppers have snapped up bars of Pistachio Kunafa Dubai Chocolate cake.

These treats are no ordinary slice of chocolate cake.

Each bar is filled with a pistachio mixture and crunchy Kadayif pastry in the centre - like the iconic "Dubai Chocolate" bars that have turned into a worldwide TikTok trend.

Morrisons has brought out these desserts slices by the brand Flair and they will set customers back £4 each.

Flair has described these bars as a fusion of the East and West, according to it's website.

The brand said: "Experience the rich, authentic pistachio paste harmoniously mixed with delicately baked kunafa, nestled on a sumptuous bed of soft chocolate cake, all enrobed in luscious chocolate.

"Each bite offers a decadent, unforgettable taste adventure that's as unique as it is addictive."

Despite the excitement, people were left divided on these trendy cake bars, in a Facebook post.

Some shoppers slammed the product for it's price with some people claiming they were not "worth" it.

One person said: "My verdict was that unfortunately they look on the wrapper much better than they taste.

"Expensive for £4 and quite dry.

"I would prefer to put the money towards a good quality Dubai chocolate bar or ingredients to make my own."

Another person wrote: "They're not great!....and at £4 they should be!..."

A third commenter said: "They were reduced to 40p in my local Morrisons. They weren’t even worth that. Completely flavourless."

Some other commenters revealed they had attempted to make the viral chocolate themselves.

One Facebook user said: "These bars are super dry… I make my own and it’s amazing."

A second wrote: "You post this.....After I've paid a fortune in the ingredients to make my own......"

CHOC CRAZE

This viral trend has swept through other dessert brands - much to fans delight.

Lindt launched their own version of a chocolate bar inspired by the Dubai craze.

This one won't come cheap as a 145g bar will set customers back £10 in-store.

These bars were only available at Lindt shops in Bicester Village, Leeds Trinity, McArthurGlen (Cheshire Oaks), and Bluewater, Dartford.
