Finally, REAL Dubai Chocolate; now 100% Gluten-Free!

Butterly Bakery Dubai chocolate with real gluten-free kataifi and pistachio filling

Real kataifi. Real crunch. No gluten.

You've seen it everywhere. The viral Dubai chocolate bar with its rich chocolate shell, creamy pistachio filling and that unmistakable golden crunch. It's the chocolate that took social media by storm, and for good reason.

But if you follow a gluten-free diet, you've probably noticed one frustrating detail: traditional Dubai chocolate isn't gluten-free. Until now, finding a gluten-free alternative that actually recreates the original experience hasn't been easy. At Butterly Bakery, we decided to change that.

The Dubai Chocolate Experience You've Been Missing

What makes Dubai chocolate so special? It's not just the chocolate or the pistachio cream. It's the combination of textures that makes every bite irresistible.

The secret is kataifi, a delicate, shredded pastry that's toasted until beautifully golden and crispy before being mixed with pistachio cream. Traditionally, kataifi is made with wheat flour, which means most Dubai chocolate bars contain gluten.

For anyone with coeliac disease or gluten intolerance, that signature crunch can mean missing out on one of the biggest chocolate trends. And we didn't think that was fair.

We Didn't Want an Alternative. We Wanted the Real Thing.

When we started creating our gluten-free Dubai chocolate, we had one goal: To recreate the Dubai chocolate experience without compromising on flavour or texture.

Many gluten-free adaptations use crushed biscuits, cornflakes or rice noodles to imitate the famous crunchy filling. But we wanted something different. Something that delivered the delicate, crispy texture of actual kataifi. That's why our Dubai chocolate is made with REAL gluten-free kataifi pastry.

Not a crunchy substitute pretending to be kataifi. Real kataifi, made gluten-free.

Combined with silky pistachio cream and wrapped in a rich dark chocolate shell, it creates the indulgent experience that makes Dubai chocolate so special. And the best part? It's completely gluten-free.
