Shake Shack is bringing the viral Dubai chocolate bar to life in a new way. The popular dessert bar, often seen in social media posts, has inspired a limited-time milkshake. Shake Shack has introduced the Chocolate Pistachio Dubai Shake, available in 30 U.S. locations, including Miami, Los Angeles, and New York City.
This shake is a twist on the famous Dubai chocolate bar, made by Fix Dessert Chocolatier in Dubai. While the original bar is not available in the U.S., customers can now enjoy its unique flavor in a milkshake form. Shake Shack is offering the milkshake for a limited time, so fans need to act quickly.
Shake Shack’s Chocolate Pistachio Dubai Shake brings together a combination of vanilla frozen custard, rich pistachio paste, and toasted kataifi, a type of shredded phyllo dough. The shake is topped with chopped pistachios and extra kataifi. The inside of the cup is coated with thick dark chocolate sauce that hardens into a shell. The treat offers a crunchy and creamy texture that mimics the original chocolate bar.
The shake costs $8 and aims to recreate the famous chocolate bar’s crunchy, nutty experience in a delicious milkshake. According to John Karangis, Shake Shack’s executive chef, the company wanted to honor the Dubai chocolate bar while keeping the Shake Shack feel. The goal was to make a milkshake that captured the textures and layers of the dessert.
This new dessert came about after Shake Shack’s international team noticed the popularity of the Dubai chocolate bar in the Middle East. The dessert gained attention on social media, especially on TikTok and Instagram, where people shared videos of cracked chocolate bars filled with pistachio cream. The ingredients that make this dessert special, including kataifi and pistachio cream, are becoming more common in U.S. candy shops.
If you want to try this treat, you can find it at Shake Shack locations across New York City, Los Angeles, and Miami. The milkshake is available at locations like the Upper East Side and Astor Place in New York, Century City and Santa Monica in Los Angeles, and Aventura Mall and Coral Gables in Miami.
Shake Shack’s Chocolate Pistachio Dubai Shake is the perfect way to shake up your next dessert stop. With its rich flavor and unique texture, it’s a treat that’s sure to become a favorite for dessert lovers across the country.
