I can’t say I’ve ever had Dubai-style chocolate as a result of it’s not Dubai-gas-cheap. Significantly, I perceive why fuel is reasonable in Dubai, however why is Dubai chocolate so costly? Is it additionally costly in Dubai, the place fuel is cheaper than bottled water right here? Baskin-Robbins’ Taste of the Month – Pistachio Chocolate Bar – is impressed by the dear chocolate bar that’s gotten extra lasting consideration than ruby chocolate.
The news options a mixture of pistachio and chocolate-flavored ice lotions, pistachio items, and chocolate crunch swirls. Sadly, no kadayif (finely shredded filo pastry). However with the inexperienced pistachio ice cream and the dark-ish chocolate swirls, it brings Dubai chocolate to thoughts.
Consuming simply the 2 swirled ice lotions in a single spoonful didn’t have a great stability; the pistachio dominates. The nut items included solely made the pistachio taste stronger. It’s solely when the stronger-tasting chocolate crunch swirls got here into play that this had a greater stability, and that’s once I really liked the inside track. I spent the remainder of my time with my scoop ensuring I bought a little bit of swirl with each spoonful. Fortunately, they had been plentiful. I additionally liked its gritty and crunchy texture.
The pistachio items, which there are plenty of, didn’t have as hearty a snap as these in a bag of Fantastic Pistachios, however they did have a pleasant crunch. Actually, the swirls had a extra pleasing texture.
As a fan of pistachio ice cream, I completely loved this scoop with its nice flavors and textures. It’s undoubtedly value a style should you’re into pistachio ice cream. Whereas it’s additionally not Dubai-gas-cheap, it’s about half the worth of many Dubai chocolate choices.
One very last thing. Whereas Baskin-Robbins Pistachio Chocolate Bar Ice Cream was extraordinarily pleasing, I’m a bit disillusioned there wasn’t a Thanksgiving-themed taste for this yr’s November Taste of the Month after final yr’s Brie My Visitor and 2023’s Turkey Day Fixin’s.
