Ghirardelli is bringing its viral Dubai chocolate sundae to NYC for one day only

Clear your calendars and brace your sweet tooth: the obsession with Dubai chocolate in NYC continues strong. This Saturday, April 26, at noon, the Ghirardelli Chocolate Experience Store inside the Empire State Building will serve up its Dubai Chocolate Sundae, an ultra-luxe riff on the viral 'Dubai chocolate' bar that's been making waves (and wrecking diets) across TikTok and in real life. Keep in mind that the dessert will only be served until supplies last. Inspired by Fix Dessert Chocolatier's famous Can't Get Knafeh of It bar in Dubai—dreamed up by Sarah Hamouda as a pregnancy craving for the Middle Eastern dessert knafeh—the sundae takes things up a notch. Ghirardelli's version layers vanilla ice cream with pistachio butter, white chocolate, shredded phyllo (aka kataifi) and the brand's signature handmade hot fudge. The treat is finished off with whipped cream, caramel drizzle and a literal gold-leafed Ghirardelli Milk Chocolate Caramel square. In short: this is not your average scoop. Hamouda started testing recipes in her Dubai living room with no prior chocolate-making experience, combining nostalgic flavors like pistachio cream and crunchy pastry. Her husband, Yezen Alani, joined her in launching FIX Dessert Chocolatier, which began by selling one bar a week. That is, until a viral ASMR-style TikTok, showing off the chocolate's gooey interior, sent demand skyrocketing and their delivery app crashing. The Ghirardelli sundae, which caused a frenzy at the brand's San Francisco flagship earlier this year, is the latest evolution of that global obsession, and we know if there's one thing New Yorkers love, it's a good dessert drop. Ask anyone who's waited hours for a Dominique Ansel Cronut, a Levain cookie or Magnolia Bakery's banana pudding back in the day. While the Dubai Chocolate Sundae has all the makings of the next sweet status symbol, this is a first-come, first-scooped situation, and supplies are limited: so show up early, bring a friend and maybe wear stretchy pants? Whether you're a chocoholic, a TikTok trend-hopper or just in it for the gold leaf, you won't want to miss this sweet release.

Six places where you can find Dubai Chocolate in NYC right now

By now, you've likely seen bars of milk chocolate sprouting with pistachio-colored phyllo popping up on your feed. It's the Dubai Chocolate Bar, and it's a trend that seems to have some staying power. It all started when Dubai's Fix Dessert Chocolatier launched their chocolate bar, 'Can't Get Knafeh of It Chocolate Bar.' It went insanely viral after TikToker Maria Veherea's ASMR video, which as of this writing has 125 million views. Spawning imitators and even scammers, the pistachio and knafeh-filled bar, now coined the 'Dubai Chocolate Bar,' has taken on a life of its own with interpretations found all around the world, including right here on the East Coast. Jersey City's The Shortbread Society®️ was one of the first to bring the trend to the city, launching their interpretation of the trend, Dubai Pistachio Chocolate Bar Shortbread, on Goldbelly in April of last year. Using Ghirardelli chocolate shortbread as a base, the dessert comes with a layer of crispy kataifi, pistachio-white chocolate cream and dark chocolate topped with crushed pistachios. However, the 20-year-old, family-owned business, The Nuts Factory, also lays claim to being one of the first, selling a classic version of the chocolate bar in August of 2024. The premium nut and chocolate store has gone on to sell it every which way, from chocolate-dipped dates filled with phyllo and rolled in nuts, cups of strawberries drizzled with pistachio cream and your choice of milk, white or dark chocolate and the Dubai Cheesecake Bomb with a filling of cheesecake right in the center. For a more classic take on the original, the Swiss chocolate store Läderach (with three locations in NYC including the Theater District, midtown and midtown east) sells a thinner version of the chocolate bar in comparison to most, with a layer of roasted pistachios and kataifi filo encased in a Swiss milk chocolate. Sweet Graffiti, the midtown bakery known for its artistic takes on dessert like pad thai cookies, sells a spray-painted chocolate bar, The Dubai (priced at $26), with pistachio, tahini, white chocolate and kataifi. They even sell a mini version with a more bite-sized price of $9. But carrying on with its eclectic nature, the bakery also released the Dubai Ice Cream Sundae made with homemade vanilla soft swerve drizzled with chocolate syrup, homemade pistachio cream, toasted kataifi and pistachios. Speaking of ice cream, Shake Shack is even getting in on the fun, selling a Dubai Chocolate Pistachio Shake with a crackable chocolate shell for a limited time. Meanwhile, Ghirardelli is dropping its Dubai Chocolate Sundae for one day only. On Saturday, April 26, the Empire State Building location will be scooping up its layered sundae (pistachio butter, white chocolate, kataifi, vanilla ice cream, Ghirardelli's signature handmade hot fudge, whipped cream, caramel sauce and a gold-leafed square of Ghirardelli Milk Chocolate Caramel) from noon until sell out.

5 things to know for April 18: Abrego Garcia, FSU shooting, CFPB, Powell, Mortgage rates

President Donald Trump announced on social media this week that grocery prices are 'going down.' But that doesn't seem to be the case in my neck of the woods (nearly $11 for a bag of Ghirardelli semisweet chocolate chips? Seriously?). CNN did a fact-check and it turns out Trump's claim was incorrect. According to the Consumer Price Index, average grocery prices were about 2.41% higher last month than they were in March 2024. That was the highest year-over-year grocery inflation rate since August 2023. Here's what else you need to know to Get Up to Speed and On with Your Day. Kilmar Abrego Garcia is still being detained in a notorious mega-prison in El Salvador without due process — even though the US government conceded his deportation was a mistake and despite the rulings of several courts. Sen. Chris Van Hollen managed to meet with Abrego Garcia on Thursday and posted several pictures on social media of their encounter. Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele responded on X and declared that Abrego Garcia will remain incarcerated in El Salvador. Abrego Garcia's wife, Jennifer Vasquez Sura, celebrated when she heard about the senator's meeting with her husband. 'My children and my prayers have been answered. The efforts of my family and community in fighting for justice are being heard, because I now know that my husband is alive,' she said in a statement. Van Hollen plans to release more details about their meeting today. At least two people were killed and another five wounded in a mass shooting on the Florida State University campus in Tallahassee on Thursday. Police have one suspect in custody, a 20-year-old FSU student who's also the son of a local sheriff's deputy. Authorities say he had his mother's service weapon when they took him into custody. The suspect also has been hospitalized 'with serious but non-life-threatening injuries,' police said. As the university went into lockdown, students and staff who've done shooting drills for years knew what to do: they hid in classrooms behind locked doors. One class stacked desks against the door in an attempt to barricade themselves from the gunman. Some fled to a church located across the street from the university, where the priest provided shelter and comfort. Others screamed and ran away from the area, frantically dodging bullets. It was the sixth mass shooting in Florida this year. The Trump administration is gutting the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau — despite a court order not to do so. The independent agency, created after the 2008 financial meltdown, protects Americans from financial abuses and has regulatory authority over many types of products and services, including bank accounts, consumer debt collection, credit cards, credit reporting and loan servicing. But on Thursday, the Trump administration laid off about 1,500 out of 1,700 employees, the National Treasury Employees Union said. Last week, a federal appeals court told the administration that it can shrink the agency but not dismantle it, nor can it trim the CFPB so much that the staff can't carry out its statutory functions. Federal employee unions and other organizations have asked a judge to hold an emergency hearing on the layoffs, claiming the administration violated the previous court order by 'cutting the Bureau's staff by 90 percent in just 24 hours.' President Trump didn't hold back his feelings about Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell on Thursday, even though he was the one who originally appointed him. In a social media post, Trump lashed out at Powell's decision not to cut interest rates and said his 'termination cannot come fast enough!' Later, while speaking with reporters, Trump reiterated his disdain for the Fed chair. 'I don't think he's doing the job. He's too late. Always too late. A little slow and I'm not happy with him. I let him know it,' Trump said. 'And if I want him out, he'll be out of there real fast, believe me.' Although the president has been unhappy with Powell for years, his most recent comments came after the Fed chair spoke at an event in Chicago and said the administration's sweeping tariffs were larger than expected and that the lingering uncertainty could inflict lasting economic damage. As to whether Trump can fire Powell, that may depend on an upcoming decision from the Supreme Court. With the arrival of spring, homeowners are making sure their properties offer good curb appeal. Those who are eager to buy are browsing real estate listings and lining up potential dates for open houses. But if buyers can't afford to purchase a property in cash, they'll need to keep an eye on mortgage rates — and this week, those rates jumped to the highest level in months. The average rate on a standard, 30-year fixed mortgage was 6.83% in the week ending April 17, up from 6.62% a week ago, mortgage financing provider Freddie Mac reported. That's the largest one-week jump in mortgage rates in nearly a year. Interest rates had been steadily falling until President Trump launched his sweeping tariff plan earlier this month, prompting an escalating trade war with China. The US may abandon efforts to end Russia's war on Ukraine'If it is not possible to end the war in Ukraine, we need to move on,' Secretary of State Marco Rubio said earlier today before departing from Paris, where he had held high-level talks with European and Ukrainian officials. 'We need to determine very quickly now, and I'm talking about a matter of days, whether or not this is doable.' Congrats to Ju Wenjun!The Chinese grandmaster made history this week by winning the Women's World Chess Championship. She is just the fourth woman — and the first Chinese player — to win the world championship five times. One of the world's smallest countries just got its first ATMsPeople on the Pacific paradise of Tuvalu have long used cash to complete various transactions. So when the local bank debuted its new ATMs this week, local dignitaries gathered to celebrate the 'significant milestone' with a massive chocolate cake. Coffee with a side of defianceSome Mexican cafés are changing the name of the Americano. The move is an act of protest against US policies, particularly with regard to immigration. The new Dumbledore will be played by an AmericanBut don't worry, Brits. It's the Emmy and Tony Award-winning actor John Lithgow who'll be taking on the role of the headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the upcoming 'Harry Potter' series on HBO. And, as Lithgow noted, 'I'm not an Englishman, although I've played one on TV.' (HBO, like CNN, is owned by Warner Bros. Discovery) Taco Bell brings back a popular itemAmericans can't get enough of … chicken nuggets? Taco Bell says it marinates chicken pieces in a jalapeño buttermilk flavor and coats them with tortilla chips and breadcrumbs.

26 Mother's Day Gifts From Target That Only Look Expensive

We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page. Because no one appreciates a thoughtful bargain more than mom-shaped humans. 1. A Daise rose and sandalwood body mist to give them a new daily go-to that reviewers say smells clean and lasts all day without being overpowering. Plus, the shape is so cute and a perfect way to still give the moms in your life their flowers without giving them actual flowers. Target Promising reviews:"I love how fresh this smells, like clean linen mixed with sandalwood. My favorite spray scent so far. Cute flower shape." — Stefany "It has such an elegant smell, low-key soft floral rose, and low-key warm, earthy sandalwood. This delicate fragrance is calming and sophisticated, perfect for an everyday scent." — Sarah 2. A birdhouse art kit so the kiddos in their life can contribute to the gifting, too! (Plus, it's gonna buy you at least 15 minutes of happy painting time, so that's a win-win in my book.) Target Look, all I'm saying is if a kiddo painted this for me and it was stuffed with Ghirardelli chocolates, I'd be one happy camper. "OMG, so cute! Totally sturdy, too!" — AllyP Price: $6.99 3. A delightful croissant clip-on pouch to make their life simpler and cuter. No more rustling around in their bags to find their fave lip gloss or their ID. It's super handy in this lil' pastry-perfect sidekick! Target Promising review:"I really like attaching the pouch to the inside of my handbag. I dislike having to drag my wallet out for identification or debit cards all the time. This pouch keeps it all conveniently together and handy!" — CA 4. A set of three Rifle Paper Co. magnetic bookmarks so they can always know where they left off in their TBR, no matter the mother-y chaos surrounding them. Target If you want to pair one with a book they'll love, take this quiz and pretend to be your gift receiver to get the PERFECT rec! 5. A garden kneeler — HEAR. ME. OUT. Whether they're parents of small kiddos, grandparents, or they just spend a lot of time in the garden or obsessing over baseboards (🙋🏻‍♀️), they want this. Hardwood floors are beautiful but also a cruel mistress when it comes to getting down to play with littles. And you can save them from an aching-knees fate for less than the price of your morning coffee. Target Promising reviews:"It is a thick, lightweight pad. I use it inside, too, on the hardwood floor. I do wish they sold a larger one so one could sit on it, too. Totally recommend it!" — Karen " Purchased for my daughter to use while bathing her newborn for her knees! She loves it!" — JLN " This works very well. Sure, there are bigger ones, or softer ones, but for the price, this can't be beat." — Anonymous 6. A set of JLab wireless Bluetooth earbuds because if they are constantly losing, washing, or otherwise mismanaging their expensive pair, these are the ticket. Reviewers SWEAR BY them for durability and sound quality. (Just check out that 4.3-star rating with over 6,000 reviews!) Plus, they'll fit so cutely in their new croissant pouch! Target Promising review:" I bought these in December, and they are still charging, and still sound good after going through the washer TWICE. I thought I would need a new pair but after drying them and charging they are working fine. There might be a slight difference in quality, but nothing too noticeable based on what I use them for. If I need a new pair of earbuds in the future, I will definitely buy these again. 💯" — Salami 7. A stainless steel teapot if they are constantly offering you hot beverages or if they just love a spot of tea to unwind during their self-care time. Pair it with a Celestial Seasonings fruit tea sampler, and you've got yourself a thoughtful, won't-break-the-bank gift. 8. A perfectly springy green Crock-Pot slow cooker so they can make dips, simmer pots, and soups with the click of a button. Plus, the color is ~sublime~ which gives you, like, 15 gift-giver bonus points. Target If you want to make it a tad more personal, you can always include dry ingredients and a printed recipe for a spring simmer pot! 9. A lavender lemonade glass jar candle with a burn time of 50 hours and a sweet springtime scent that will have them smiling every time they light it. Throw in a rechargeable gooseneck electric lighter, and you'll be the belle of the gift-giving ball. Target 10. A framed vintage lemon print because when life gives you spring/summer citrus, frame them for the mom figures in your life for some on-trend LEMON CUTENESS. Target Seriously, lemons are everywhere this year, so if you've got someone on your list who is big into spring/summery vibes, Target has got you and your gift to-do's covered. Promising reviews:"Super cute picture. The picture and frame are well made. Overall, the quality is great, and the price is reasonable." — Meg "Love the bright yellow color on this art piece. Looks great in my living room." — Vinks Price: $32 11. A snuggly pair of slippers if you know their winter pair took a beating, and they could use a little pampering in the form of warm toes. Target 12. A packable straw tote perfect for their trips to spring farmers' market visits and any other sunshiny adventures. It's also Forest Stewardship Council certified, which means that it's made from wood in responsibly managed forests! Good for your mother and Mother Earth? Win-win. Target You can read more about the Forest Stewardship Council certification here! Promising reviews:"Love! Large and roomy and looks expensive." — Anon "Super cute and well-made. Folds flat for travel and is very spacious. Not structured, which I like, and I really like the darker straw color. I plan to use it for summer travel, beach, markets, etc." — Mandysb 13. A matted frame because we might be in the digital age, but who doesn't love getting an already-framed beloved photo they can put on their desk or wall? Target Promising review:"Very cute and loved that the circle added something different to my gallery wall. Good quality. Definitely thicker than your standard photo frame." — Josi 14. An ESW Beauty vanilla almond butter smoothie lip treatment they'll reach for again and again because not only does it help keep their lips in tip-top shape, but it also smells and feels divine. (And we all know that's *not* always the case when it comes to lip products.) Target Promising review:"I absolutely love this lip gloss. The smell is so lovely, like vanilla. It gives a beautiful neutral brown gloss, which I really love. It feels very nice and nourishing on and for my lips. Thank you for making this product vegan, which is overall a plus for me, and I know many others!" — Yael Yasha 15. A set of three potted plant ceramic mushroom buddies you can give all on their own or stick around that fiddle leaf fig you know they've been eyeing at the local plant nursery. Target Promising reviews:"These little guys look so adorable in our garden. They are perfect to make a cute little fairy garden area. The colors are perfection." — Screechies "So cute! They hold up well and don't tip over from being too heavy! Great quality and price." — Srsalty21 16. A set of solar LED outdoor string lights to bring a touch of whimsy to their al fresco spring nights. Just look at those little rattan light hats — they practically scream, "Spring!" At only twenty bucks a pop, this gift can be the light of their night, gifted with love from the light of their life. (Which is you, of course.) Target Promising review:"Great addition to my balcony seating area. Gives off a nice soft light in the evening. The solar charge does wear off overnight but recharges daily. I've had these up throughout the spring, summer, and fall with no problems." — Always Shopping 17. A sling crossbody bag so pretty and stylish it looks like you snagged it from Anthro, but without the Anthro price tag. This one comes with an adjustable strap for the perfect fit, plus plenty of easy-access zippered compartments so they can keep all of their essentials handy. Target Promising reviews:" I recently traveled out of town, and this crossbody was so helpful! I wore it with almost everything. So many compartments, and I was able to just throw it over me." — Mesha "I was looking for something to fulfill the need of carrying around my wallet, keys, phone, diaper, wipes, and a few snacks since my children are older now, and I don't want to carry around a giant diaper bag. This was perfect, and I really liked the style and material. As previously mentioned, if you are looking for something to hold a water bottle, the side pocket will NOT do that, but it works perfectly for hand sanitizer and sunglasses." — Jordan 18. A set of metal gardening tools that are rustproof, sturdy, and perfectly cute, so whether they *actually* plan to do some gardening or just want a few cute accessories for that outdoor workbench they're always meaning to use, you'll win the award for best gift-giver. Target The set includes a spade, a cultivator, and a bypass pruner. Pair this set with a seed starter and some heckin' cheap gardening gloves if you want to really give them a green thumb boost this Mother's Day! 19. A lightweight woven striped throw if they love that Kathleen Kelly You've Got Mail spring apartment vibe, but you don't love the hefty NYC price tag. Target Promising review:"Super soft throw that washes well. It has a great color, is warm but not too warm, and very pretty!" — CBerg Price: $35 20. A Tiny Tags 14-karat gold ion–plated ladybug necklace so they can top off every outfit with a bit of ✨sparkle✨ that is sure to add a touch of whimsy and sophistication no matter how comfy their outfit. Bonus points: You can add a card with the stellar line, "Sorry to bug you, but I just wanted to wish you a happy Mother's Day." You're welcome. Target Tiny Tags was founded by Melissa Clayton after the birth of her first son when she couldn't find the perfect "mommy" necklace and decided to make her own. What started out as a hobby has now become Melissa's life's passion, and boy, does it show! I'm OBSESSED with how dainty-cute (and giftable!) these are! Be sure to check out the cowboy boot, sunflower, and star if you want a peek at the ones sitting in my own cart. 21. A puffy, quilted lumbar pillow to help them get perfectly comfortable, no matter the activity — be it sleep, work, or reading, this pillow will be there to give them support and coziness just like they gave you support and coziness. A full-circle gifting moment. Target Also, this and the striped throw would be such a cozy-book-nook-in-a-bag situation, especially if you throw a book in there, too. (Take this quiz and pretend to be your gift receiver to get the PERFECT rec!) Promising review:"I love this pillow! It is extremely firm and supportive for lower back support on the sofa and office chair! But the puffy design is so soft! It really supports and is also a great accent pillow! Wish it came in more colors!" — Teachermomva 22. A Lego daffodil kit Target Psst. Grab this cute tinted vase so they have a spot to show off their handiwork! Promising review:"This daffodil Lego set was fun and easy to assemble. It probably took me about half an hour to 45 minutes to put together. I took my time and had fun with it. The finished flowers are so cute and fun and are the perfect addition to spring decor in our house. The four finished flowers fit nicely in a vase and look so bright and cheery on our living room cabinet. 100% recommend getting these for a kid or an adult (or yourself!) as a fun spring activity/decor piece." — Sunshine 23. A floral trinket tray so they can spend less time hunting for earring backings and more time admiring their shiny dragon hoard of perfect spring and summer jewelry. Target Promising review:"I got the ivory/blue jewelry tray, and it's so cute! I would definitely recommend this jewelry tray if you're looking for something small that adds a pop of color to your space." — Jennifer Price: $8.50 (originally $10, available in two styles) 24. A star-shaped tea infuser because if their tea time is their "me" time, why not help make it as whimsical and cute as possible? Target Pair it with a loose-leaf tea sampler set and this sweet "best mom ever" mug to really up your gifting game! Price: $12.99 (originally $32.99) 25. A pair of ESW Beauty sheet masks that could accompany a spa headband and wrist guard set for an at-home spa day gift basket. The masks are designed for sharing, so there's one for you and one for them! Is there anything better than a joint Mother's Day self-care party? Target Promising reviews:"Absolutely love this set! The formulas are top-notch, and they include some of my all-time favorites in one convenient bundle. They stick really well, too, and don't dry out quickly. I was super excited to find these masks at my Target!" — Brit "I grabbed a few of these sheet masks for our monthly girls' night, and everyone loved them! The masks delivered a gorgeous glow, making our night even more special. Plus, the ingredients definitely feel way more premium than any other sheet masks I've tried in the past." — Katie Price: $8.99 26. A pair of sunglasses for all the warm weather days ahead when you know they'll always be hunting for a pair. (And these go with everything already in their closet!) Don't forget to grab a cute case to complete the gift! Target Price: $10.50 (originally $14) The reviews for this post have been edited for length and clarity.

The viral pistachio chocolate was first created by Sarah Hamouda of Dubai-based Fix Dessert Chocolatier, and Ghirardelli's spin on the trend is a sundae featuring layers of vanilla ice cream, handmade hot fudge, and a mixture of pistachio butter, white chocolate, and kataifi (shredded phyllo).
