[Food] Dubai Chocolate

[Herr Tubthumper]

What does it taste like, any good? Don't think I've run into any here in Stockholm. Chocolate from Dubai sounds like swimwear from Siberia.

It’s nice, but very sweet and has texture from some crunchy bits in it. I had two squares with a black coffee. Not sure I’d buy this regularly especially as I prefer dark chocolate.

It also cost 9.99 euros and has a tag on the back to stop people lifting it.

Ah, I'll see if I can find it here somewhere, would be fun to try something new.

Nice of them to buy you a bar though or share some that they bought Ask them if they have actually eaten any or just use social media more than you.

Apparently some chocolate with nuts was found inside one of the Egyptian pyramids.

It's believed that it was the tomb of Pharaoh Rocher.

Bought them for his Mummy?

They say they haven't tried it but that it's "common knowledge"...

I'm up in the mountains right now and found this at the local ICA store! SEK 79.90 (guess it's about GBP 6.50). No brand I've heard of, probably not the best quality ... but, I think it was quite good. Better than I thought it would be. That said, I think it will take a while before I buy another one.

We -- well, the other two, if I'm being honest -- made some a week or two ago. It was absolutely delicious, and you can flex the recipe to use other nuts. I'll try it with almonds and hazelnuts and might even report back. The recipe used was (and the Shredded Wheat option was taken):
