Crush Dubai Chocolate Bar (Pomegranate)

The presentation of this bar was very impressive. Looked expensive! We shared this bar amongst five people. Most loved the taste and the texture. I thought the pomegranate was a little overpowering but I did enjoy it. Very large in size. All in all an excellent purchase, just a little expensive to buy on a regular basis.

• Ranking: 7/10 • Buy Again? - No. I highly recommend these bars. Keep in mind they are very good but rich, fattening, and extremely filling. Now, this pomegranate one was yummy, but personally...I find Crush's pecan flavor to be the cat's meow.

I have never been hip to the latest thing, so I am a little late to the new Dubai chocolate craze that's sweeping the nation, but I'm here today for it and boy do I wish I jumped on the train sooner! Let's get this out of the way: If you want a fun gift that starts a conversation about the most expensive chocolate bar you've ever gotten, then this might still be up your alley. If you're looking for a tasty snack, this might not be worth it- read on for why: Dubai chocolate has become famous for two things: 1. its expensive cost, and 2. pistachio. This bar has both in spades, in both good and bad ways. Let's "dig in." After trying this chocolate bar and a few alternatives, I think I have a good grasp on what makes for a good pistachio Dubai chocolate bar. The pistachio flavor gives this chocolate bar a slightly nutty and savory flavor with just a hint of of salt. It's got a crispy texture, as is standard in Dubai chocolate bars. Tastes and feels quite like a wafer cookie on the inside, where they mixed pistachio into the dough. This alone makes for an unforgettable, highly addictive flavor and texture profile that demands the high price tag on most of the other Dubai chocolate bars that I tried. This bar deviates from the basic Dubai mold, however, because they've added pomegranate, and doubled the price! The pomegranate gives this a sweeter profile than standard Dubai chocolate, but doesn't overpower the pistachio. It definitely has a bit of sweet but tart pomegranate flavor to it. I'm not sure it's a better alternative to the standard pistachio, however. I think I'd rank this a close second. It's good but not as good as the original. So the last thing to mention that I touched on a few times here is the price. This is one expensive chocolate bar. It's nicely packaged in a very well made cardboard box, with thick foil inside (keeping it very fresh!), really presenting itself as a luxury, premium chocolate bar. It certainly plays the part of an expensive chocolate bar, but does the flavor justify the price tag? Not really. That's not to say it's not a decent, if not premium, chocolate bar. It's fantastic and I'd eat another! But it needs to come down in price by half before I'd consider getting another. Right now I get other Dubai chocolate bars at our local mart for about $15.

The Crush Dubai Pistachio Pomegranate Chocolate Bar is hands down one of the most unique and luxurious chocolates I’ve ever tasted. From the moment I opened the package, I could tell this wasn’t just another candy bar—this is a full gourmet experience. The combination of pistachio, pomegranate cream, tahini, and crispy toasted kataifi is unreal. Every bite tastes like a modern twist on the classic Knafeh dessert, and they absolutely nailed the flavor profile. The crunch from the katafi, the smoothness of the chocolate, and the tart sweetness from the pomegranate blend together perfectly. It’s rich but not overwhelming, sweet but still balanced, and incredibly satisfying. The chocolate bar itself is thick, beautifully crafted, and generously filled—you can genuinely taste all the premium ingredients. It feels like something you would find in a high-end chocolate boutique. The 7 oz size also makes it a perfect gift, and the packaging is elegant enough for birthdays, holidays, or a special treat for yourself. If you enjoy Middle Eastern flavors or want something truly exotic and memorable, this chocolate bar is a must‑try. I’m already planning to order more—one for me and a few for gifting. Absolutely worth every penny!

loved the chocolate. the pomegranate gave it just the right amount of sweetness. they were easy to break and share. well worth the amount for this one big bar. Loved the gold made it look expensive.

My friends and I are big fans of Dubai chocolate, so I ordered this for us during a girls' dinner for us to enjoy and decided to try to pomegranate one to change it up. I was shocked at how heavy the bar was! The bar is so pretty when you open it up. The pink and green swirls totally gave us Wicked vibes. There were 5 of us at the get together so it was easy to divide the bar evenly with each of getting 2 squares each. Personally, I wasn't too fan of the pomegranate taste as it was a little too strong and I felt like it overpowered the chocolate. I would be willing to try other flavors, but maybe not at this price tag. The bar is a quite pricey for what it is. Overall, it was just okay.

So disclaimer, I guess? I never understood the whole 'viral' thing, like....I don't follow social media like most people seem to, so it was quite a while before I never heard of this thing. But I am, for sure, a chocolate bar far. And make no mistake, this in a vacuum is a pretty good chcolate bar. The slight tangy pomegranate flavor combined with the texture from the katafi certainly makes it different too,. But....well....what's the point? I never understood why this particular conconction was so expensive, even from 'normal' brands such as Lindt, but this seems extra excessive. 230 grams (and 100 grams is a 'serving....can;t even devide servings into proper squares of the bar) is all you get. And looking at the ingredients, 'pomegranate' is no where to be found, so it's clearly artificial, so that's even less of an excuse there. I suppose maybe people with some money might like this is a 'luxury gift' that they advertise it for, but us normies should stay far away. It's good but not multiple double digits good.

I have tried lots of similar recipes to this and this is one of the nicest however it’s not a very good value for money, maybe a little over priced at £29.99. Nice taste and packing is very funky

The pomegranate in this spoils it for me personally, it is too overpowering and drowns out the other flavours. It's intended as a gift because it comes with a gift bag inside the box (squashed into the base) but I wouldn't be comfortable giving it as a gift because its just a single chocolate bar and the pomegranate flavour is quite bold so not everyone will like it. The chocolate used seems fairly average quality too. In mine the sides/top had separated from the chocolate base in a perfectly straight line all the way around which to me shows its a food manufacturing quality issue where the chocolate moulds haven't worked as well as they should do to join bits together. According to the wrapper its made in Saudi Arabia. I was really looking forward to this but sadly I was disappointed by the taste, quality and price.

In the past, if someone had told me that I was about to eat part of a £30 (at the time of ordering) bar of chocolate, I would have told them to have a word with themselves… This very expensive Dubai chocolate bar arrived in a cardboard box, inside of which was the very colourfully wrapped bar of thick chocolate and an equally colourful branded gift bag. The consistent branding gives the product a modern and luxurious feel. The sense of luxury continues when you actually unwrap the bar. The bar is generously thick and looks awesome in pink, green, and chocolate brown. The taste is, as you might expect, quite complex. For me, I mostly get cereal and the odd, beautiful hint of fruity pomegranate, but unfortunately little in the way of pistachio. It’s sweet, but I don’t think it’s overly sweet. That being said, a few blocks are enough; save the rest for another day 😊 As I haven’t had chocolate like this before, I thought I would share it with my immediate family. As one of my family members is a coeliac, all items have to be thoroughly checked. Having read the ingredients of this product, I noted the allergen statement: ‘…this product might contain wheat gluten, nuts, dairy products, and sesame seeds…’. This is pretty much a standard disclaimer for products made in a multi-food environment. However, when I researched the ingredients further, I found that traditional Kunafa contains gluten unless it has been specifically made from gluten-free wheat. Due to the disclaimer, my relative would not have touched the product anyway, but I feel the manufacturer should state that gluten will be present, not might be. Presentation-wise, this product is top-notch. Taste-wise, I really like it, but maybe not £30 like it. As for the ingredients, the standard disclaimer would have prevented any mishap, but I feel strongly that what we are putting into our bodies should always be listed accurately.

This chocolate bar is beautiful to look at and comes very nicely packaged, even with a little gift bag. It's all brightly coloured to represent the flavour which I think is a nice touch. The chocolate has a decent shelf life (August 2025) and doesn't need to be refrigerated. I was pleasantly surprised by how filled it is, and it has really defined layers which is quite impressive. The flavour is delicious, the pomegranate really makes it feel quite fresh and cuts through the rich and creamy pistachio, it almost tastes more like raspberry than pomegranate but is very enjoyable. I loved the crunch from the kunafa too, it adds a nice texture to it rather than it just being all creamy. Overall, it's a beautiful chocolate bar, almost like a piece of artwork. It tastes delicious too and is filled to the brim. I probably would not want to pay the price they are asking for it unless it was for a very special occasion, but would eagerly have some again if the opportunity arose.

The flavour wasn't to my liking, I was hoping for the original flavour that i saw on tiktok but i clearly didnt read the description correctly, it did come beautifully packaged though but it was very melted possibly due to being in a hot van all day which isn't the fault of the seller.
