A clever hack has emerged for UK chocolate lovers to snap up the viral £10 Lindt Dubai chocolate bars for less than £5, sparking a rush for these indulgent treats. The chocolate has taken over social media, with foodies flocking to stores and online retailers in search of the sought-after pistachio and kadayif-filled bars.
The Dubai Chocolate Craze Takes Over
Spring 2025 is shaping up to be a sweet season, with Dubai-style chocolate becoming the latest confectionery trend to dominate the UK. Shoppers across the country have scrambled to get their hands on the iconic Lindt £10 bars, which have made a major impact following their viral success on TikTok.
The bars, filled with pistachio and crispy kadayif, are not just a treat—they’ve become a symbol of foodie culture, with UK retailers putting strict two-bar purchase limits in place to prevent hoarding.
Lindt’s Dubai chocolate, launched earlier this year, sold out within days, and the retailer has now restocked, albeit with limits on purchases. Despite the premium price, savvy shoppers have found a way to buy two bars for just £4.83—a significant discount on the standard price of £10 each.
According to money-saving platform TopCashback, customers can claim a £15 sign-up bonus, which effectively reduces the cost of the bars when shopping through Lindt’s online store.
Unlocking Massive Savings on Lindt’s Viral Dubai Chocolate
TopCashback’s deal is allowing shoppers to access a substantial discount, which has caught the attention of those eager to stock up on the viral chocolate. By signing up for the cashback site, customers can receive a £15 bonus, making the total cost of two 145g Lindt bars just £4.83 after cashback is applied.
This hack is considerably cheaper than alternative options available in stores like Lidl, where the 122g bars are priced at £7.98 for two, if customers are lucky enough to find them in stock.
According to reports from Mirror, the Lidl bars—although similar in style—are not the same, as they offer a smaller portion size and lack the same rich quality. The TopCashback deal has quickly gone viral itself, as savvy shoppers rush to capitalise on the chance to save.
The rising popularity of Dubai-style chocolate has triggered an increase in so-called “taste tourism,” with foodies booking trips to Dubai to experience the original version of the chocolate.
Travel company Destination2 has reported a 38% increase in holiday bookings to Dubai compared to the same period last year, indicating that the food trend is influencing travel choices as well as shopping habits.
