Aldi is selling a Dubai Chocolate Style bar
Inspired by the viral sensation that took social media by storm, this 100g bar offers a luxurious taste experience without the hefty price tag.
It will be hitting Aldi shelves across the UK on Thursday, June 12, for just £3.99.
With no purchase limits, shoppers can stock up on this affordable delight.
But, as with all Aldi Specialbuys, once they're gone, they're gone.
Other supermarkets have also jumped on the Dubai chocolate trend.
Lidl previously offered its JD Gross Dubai-Style Chocolate bar for also £3.99, which sold out rapidly.
Waitrose introduced a No.1 White Chocolate with Pistachio Nuts & Sea Salt bar priced at £2.75, offering a sweet and salty twist on the classic.
Morrisons sells the Bolci Dubai Chocolate With Pistachio Kadayif Filled Milk Chocolate at £5 for a 100g bar.
Lindt's take on the trend is a 145g Dubai-Style Chocolate bar filled with pistachio and kadayif pastry, retailing at £10.
But at £3.99, Aldi's will be the cheapest in stores.

Its always worth checking around different stores to compare prices and land the best deal.
Websites like Google Shopping, PriceSpy, and Idealo can be invaluable tools for this.
They allow you to track price histories and compare offerings across various retailers, ensuring you get the most bang for your buck.
SAVE MONEY AT ALDI
Keeping your eyes peeled for cheap Specialbuys is just one way to save money at Aldi.
The supermarket often comes out cheapest for a smaller trolley of items in Which? surveys as well, including in April.
The consumer website recently found a shopping list of 79 items would have cost you £135.95 on average across the month.
Rival Lidl was close behind, with the same shop costing £136.64, if you had a Lidl Plus card.
It's worth keeping an eye out for any red sticker products too, which are added to items going out of date or that are slightly damaged.
Aldi tends to add them to items in the morning so it's best to get to your local branch early if you want to get the best discounts.
Take advantage of Aldi's cheap alcohol which could save you some cash compared to going with branded versions.
Look out for Too Good to Go "Surprise Bags" as well.

UK's cheapest supermarket for 76 essentials revealed as Aldi LOSES top spot after 20 months
Check how to cut the costs on your grocery shop BASKET CASE UK's cheapest supermarket for 76 essentials revealed as Aldi LOSES top spot after 20 months Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THE cheapest supermarket for a basket of 76 items in July has been revealed - and Aldi has been knocked off the top spot. The latest analysis from Which? had crowned the discounter the cheapest for the past 20 months. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Lidl has been named the cheapest supermarket for 76 items Credit: Getty The research compares the average price of a shop consisting of popular groceries at eight of the UK's biggest supermarkets. In July, Lidl was crowned the cheapest supermarket, where the groceries cost £128.40 on average across the month. Members of its loyalty scheme Lidl Plus could save a further 40p. Meanwhile, Aldi was 85p more expensive at £129.25 on average. The list of 76 items included both branded and own-brand items, such as Birds Eye peas, Hovis bread, milk and butter. The analysis includes special offer prices and loyalty prices where applicable, but not multibuys. Meanwhile, Tesco Clubcard members would have paid £141.92 on average which is £13.92 more than at Lidl with a loyalty card, while without a Clubcard, the Tesco shop cost £145.10. For those using a Sainsbury's Nectar card, July's shopping list of items averaged £144.21. Without a Nectar card, the same items at Sainsbury's cost £149.55.

It was cheaper than Tesco with a Clubcard by £7.47 (£481.59). Waitrose was the most expensive on average, with the bigger shop costing £538.33 - a difference of £64.21 compared to Asda. Waitrose was also the most expensive supermarket for a smaller list of items this month, totalling £170.91 on average. That's a difference of £42.51 compared to Lidl (with a loyalty card). Aldi and Lidl are not included in the comparison of the bigger list as they have a smaller range of products. Reena Sewraz, Which? retail editor, said: 'Lidl has bagged the top spot as the UK's cheapest supermarket for the first time in 20 months, according to our latest price analysis, showing that it can beat Aldi even without loyalty prices. 'The bigger trolley of groceries shows that Asda continues to be the cheapest non-discounter supermarket - beating membership prices at Tesco, Sainsbury's and Morrisons. 'Households are still contending with high food prices but our analysis shows it pays to shop around, simply choosing one supermarket over another could save you 25%.' A Waitrose spokesperson said: "Our customers know that there's more to great value than just price, and we combine excellent quality, industry-leading animal welfare standards and fantastic customer service." The Sun also contacted Aldi for comment.

How to save money on your food shop Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how you can save hundreds of pounds a year: Odd boxes - plenty of retailers offer slightly misshapen fruit and veg or surplus food at a discounted price. Lidl sells five kilos of fruit and veg for just £1.50 through its Waste Not scheme while Aldi shoppers can get Too Good to Go bags which contain £10 worth of all kinds of products for £3.30. Sainsbury's also sells £2 "Taste Me, Don't Waste Me" fruit and veg boxes to help shoppers reduced food waste and save cash. Food waste apps - food waste apps work by helping shops, cafes, restaurants and other businesses shift stock that is due to go out of date and passing it on to members of the public. Some of the most notable ones include Too Good to Go and Olio. Too Good to Go's app is free to sign up to and is used by millions of people across the UK, letting users buy food at a discount. Olio works similarly, except users can collect both food and other household items for free from neighbours and businesses. Yellow sticker bargains - yellow sticker bargains, sometimes orange and red in certain supermarkets, are a great way of getting food on the cheap. But what time to head out to get the best deals varies depending on the retailer. You can see the best times for each supermarket here. Super cheap bargains - sign up to bargain hunter Facebook groups like Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK where shoppers regularly post hauls they've found on the cheap, including food finds. "Downshift" - you will almost always save money going for a supermarket's own-brand economy lines rather than premium brands. The move to lower-tier ranges, also known as "downshifting" and hailed by consumer expert Martin Lewis, could save you hundreds of pounds a year on your food shop.
