‘I’ve never tried chocolate like this,’ foodies say after eating new angel hair bar that’s better than the Dubai one
A NEW chocolate is taking over the social media world, with foodies claiming that it’s better than the Dubai one.
The ‘angel hair’ pink chocolate bar is going viral on TikTok and is “apparently more” popular than the “actual Dubai chocolate.”
The pink chocolate bar by Tucho Bar “feels insane” and “looks like Lego.”
Foodies rave about its pistachio cream, with a subtle hint of vanilla, pomegranate, and raspberry, saying it makes the bar “smell so good.”
The angel hair chocolate bar is said to be “delicious,” featuring a “dreamy fusion of floss candy chocolate” which resembles “angel hair.”
One fan, Carmie Sellitto, known as @touchdalight on TikTok, described the taste as “incredible.”
Speaking to his 933,000 TikTok followers, he said: “I’ve never ever tried anything like this chocolate before.”
He added: “The best chocolate I’ve ever had in my life.”
Carmie explained that the bar also contains the Dubai chocolate inside it, before giving it a rating of “solid 10 out of 10.”
He shared a video of him testing out the pink chocolate, which has received over 884,000 views, with more than 1,000 people rushing to the comments section to share their thoughts.
Some viewers couldn’t believe what the angel hair part looked like, with one describing it as resembling “loft insulation.”
Another referred to it as “cotton candy chocolate.”
One commenter explained the angel hair, writing: “The ‘angel hair’ is a Turkish ‘cotton candy’ called pişmaniye, which is already delicious tasting on its own.
“Also, it’s less sweet than actual cotton candy.”
The chocolate can be purchased from Etsy or the Tucho website.
This comes after the Dubai chocolate treat went viral on TikTok, with many rushing to stores to get their hands on a bar.
Lidl is one of the latest stores to stock the cake-filled sweet treat, which contains a green filling made from pistachio and a traditional Arab dessert called knafeh.
Home Bargains is also selling a similar bar, albeit a smaller snack bar, for £1.50.
How to save money on chocolate
We all love a bit of chocolate from now and then, but you don't have to break the bank buying your favourite bar.
Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to cut costs…
Go own brand – if you’re not too fussed about flavour and just want to supplant your chocolate cravings, you’ll save by going for the supermarket’s own brand bars.
Shop around – if you’ve spotted your favourite variety at the supermarket, make sure you check if it’s cheaper elsewhere.
Websites like Trolley.co.uk let you compare prices on products across all the major chains to see if you’re getting the best deal.
Look out for yellow stickers – supermarket staff put yellow, and sometimes orange and red, stickers on to products to show they’ve been reduced.
They usually do this if the product is coming to the end of its best-before date or the packaging is slightly damaged.
Buy bigger bars – most of the time, but not always, chocolate is cheaper per 100g the larger the bar.
So if you’ve got the appetite, and you were going to buy a hefty amount of chocolate anyway, you might as well go bigger.
