Viral Dubai Chocolate Bar with Hazelnuts and Edible Gold Recipe
Introduction
The viral Dubai chocolate bar is a stunning layered treat combining dark, milk, and white chocolate with a rich hazelnut filling. Its elegant look and delightful texture make it a perfect indulgence for chocolate lovers looking to impress.
Ingredients
- 200g dark chocolate (for the outer layer)
- 200g milk chocolate (for the middle layer)
- 100g white chocolate (for the filling)
- ½ cup hazelnut spread
- ½ cup crushed nuts (hazelnuts or almonds)
- ¼ cup salted caramel sauce (optional for drizzling)
- Edible gold leaf (optional for decoration)
Instructions
- Step 1: Lightly grease a chocolate bar mold or line it with parchment paper to ensure easy removal later.
- Step 2: Melt the dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth. Pour this melted dark chocolate into the bottom of the mold and spread evenly. Tap the mold gently to remove air bubbles.
- Step 3: In a separate bowl, melt the milk chocolate using the same method. Pour the melted milk chocolate over the dark chocolate layer, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the crushed nuts on top for added texture.
- Step 4: Melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Once melted, stir in the hazelnut spread until fully combined. Pour this mixture over the milk chocolate layer, smoothing it out evenly.
- Step 5: Melt any remaining dark chocolate and pour it over the white chocolate layer to seal the bar. Spread it evenly and then place the mold in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or until fully set.
- Step 6: Carefully remove the chocolate bar from the mold once set. Drizzle salted caramel sauce over the top and decorate with edible gold leaf for a luxurious finish.
Tips & Variations
- Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor and smooth texture.
- Substitute crushed nuts with dried fruit or crispy rice for different textures.
- For a vegan version, choose dairy-free chocolates and hazelnut spread.
- Chill the mold in the fridge during layering to help each layer set faster and prevent mixing.
Storage
Store the chocolate bar in an airtight container in a cool, dry place or in the refrigerator. It will keep well for up to two weeks. If refrigerated, allow the bar to come to room temperature before serving for the best texture and flavor.
How to Serve

FAQs
Can I use a different type of nut spread?
Yes, you can substitute hazelnut spread with almond or peanut butter, but note that this will alter the flavor profile slightly.
What if I don’t have a chocolate mold?
You can use a small loaf pan or a lined container to shape the bar, then slice it into pieces once set. Just ensure the lining is smooth for easy removal.
