STORYLINE:
Hundreds of curious shoppers — many equipped with rain gear and folding camping stools — lined up for hours on a drizzly Thursday morning in the western German city of Aachen to get a first, rarefied taste of the novel confection: Dubai Chocolate.
The bars first concocted in 2021 by startup FIX Dessert Chocolatier in the United Arab Emirates feature a crunchy mixture of chocolate, pistachio cream paste and knafeh, a crispy dough that is better known for its use in baklava.
Swiss chocolatier Lindt is getting into the act and industry gurus hope the market for chocolate worldwide will expand.
The nearly 180-year-old Swiss chocolate vendor Lindt took its first steps trying to hop onto the bandwagon, with a limited release of 1,000 chocolate bars in select shops in Germany.
