Here’s where to get TikTok-famous Dubai chocolate bars and inspired treats in the Milwaukee area
Pistachio-filled ‘Dubai Chocolate’ bar is latest viral TikTok trend
This Long Island candy store sees international success selling pistachio- and phyllo-filled “Dubai Chocolate” bars, made famous on TikTok.
Fox – 5 NY
Milwaukeeans can now get their hands on TikTok-famous Dubai chocolate bars.
The viral pistachio cream-filled chocolate bars first gained popularity on social media in late 2023. Initially, they were hard to find in the U.S., but now they’re available at multiple cafés, chocolate shops and dessert restaurants in the Milwaukee area. Recently, a supermarket chain with stores in Wisconsin began carrying the chocolate bars, too.
Some Milwaukee businesses have even created shakes, croissants and more based on the chocolate.
Here’s what to know about Dubai chocolate bars and treats inspired by them, and where to find both in Milwaukee:
What is Dubai chocolate, and how did it become popular?
Dubai chocolate bars are inspired by knafeh, a Middle Eastern dessert made with kataifi spun pastry dough, sweet attar syrup and layers of pistachio and cream. The inside of the chocolate bar features a mixture of crispy knafeh bits and pistachio cream. The treat’s exterior shows off a vibrant, yellow and green hand-splatter-painted design.
The Dubai chocolate bar trend is believed to have started in 2023 when a content creator in the United Arab Emirates posted a 1.5-minute clip of herself opening a chocolate bar, breaking it in half and dipping it in pistachio cream before sampling it. The video, by TikTok user @mariavehera257, featured a bar from Dubai-based Fix Dessert Chocolatier. The video has more than 120.5 million views and over 6.7 million likes.
Initially, the chocolate bars were rare in the U.S. because they’re made in the United Arab Emirates.

Milwaukee Brewers Flamethrower Jacob Misiorowski Has Historic Night Against Yankees – World Baseball Network
The Milwaukee Brewers shut out the New York Yankees in a 6-0 victory on Friday night, and Jacob Misiorowski was dominated at a historic level.
In the first two innings of Friday night’s game, Misiorowski threw eight of the 10 fastest pitches ever by a starting pitcher. Of those eight, seven are now the fastest pitches ever thrown by a starting pitcher, according to Codify Baseball.
Misiorowski’s velocity has been a major topic of discussion ever since he made his debut last season. He lights up the radar gun early in games, but usually sees his velocity drop as the game goes on. However, in the fifth inning, he was able to throw a 103 mph fastball to Ryan McMahon. He also threw a 102.7 mph fastball to Cody Bellinger in the sixth inning.
Misiorowski leads all of baseball in strikeouts, notching his 70th strikeout of the season in the sixth inning of Friday’s game. Misiorowski has a 2.45 ERA on the season and had 11 strikeouts against the Yankees. The 60 fastest pitches thrown by a starting pitcher this season all belong to the Brewers ace.
It was Misiorowski’s first time facing the Yankees, and it was not just fans who were left in awe. Spencer Jones, the Yankees’ No. 6 prospect, made his MLB debut on Friday night and felt happy to just foul a pitch off against the flamethrowing righty.
“I’ve never seen pitches that hard in my life,” Jones said after the game, per MLB.com’s Adam McCalvy. “To foul off a couple is pretty great, so I’ll take that for now.”
Misiorowski’s teammate, Sal Frelick, was also in disbelief when Misiorowski kept touching triple digits late in the game.
“I kept looking up at the velo after every pitch as he got deep,” Frelick said per McCalvy. “I couldn’t believe it.”
Misiorowski picked a great night to showcase his best stuff. CC Sabathia was in the house to be inducted into the Brewers Wall of Honor, and he gave Misiorowski a glowing endorsement before the game.
“I love Misiorowski,” said Sabathia, per McCalvy. “I think he’s going to be a great pitcher.
“Honestly, he reminds me of myself as a young pitcher.”
If Misiorowski can become the type of player Sabathia was, he will be breaking records for years to come. He has played his best in big games so far in his career, but he is still only 24 and getting better with every start.
He credited adrenaline to his sustained velocity on Friday, so it makes sense that he has his best stuff in big games.
