Tesco shoppers divided over Fox's new Dubai-style biscuits
The iconic biscuit brand has launched its very own pack of sweet treats inspired by the viral Dubai chocolate - have you tried them? It comes after the likes of Lindt, Lidl, and even M&S have introduced their own products over the last few months. Fox's Dubai Style Pistachio Biscuit pack is currently on offer for £2.65 with a Clubcard, compared to the standard price of £3. Fox's launches new Dubai-style biscuit in UK supermarkets But the chocolate-coated shortcakes, which have a 'melt in the mouth' creamy pistachio centre, have certainly been dividing people. It comes as foodie social media group New Foods UK posted a picture of the biscuits spotted in Tesco supermarkets across the UK. The post was captioned: 'New Fox's Dubai Style Pistachio Biscuits spotted at Tesco!' One excited account replied: 'Wow need to try.' While another who was lucky enough to find Fox's Dubai Style Pistachio Biscuits said: 'Recently tried these! They're quite nice, I mean.. you can never go wrong with a @foxsbiscuits right?' However, some weren't the biggest fans, as this person shared: 'They're okay, but definitely NOT worth the money.' Another put: 'I got these the other day. They just taste like chocolate. Not getting any pistachio flavour.' Others also seem to be fed up with the Dubai chocolate trend, as one commented: 'What is it with this craze. They all taste disgusting.' Have you managed to try the biscuits yet? Let us know in the comments below. Recommended reading: What is Dubai chocolate? Although many big brands have created their own twist on Dubai chocolate this year, it's usually a chocolate-filled shell with pistachio cream, tahini, and crunchy kataifi (shredded filo dough). Kataifi is the main ingredient used in knafeh, which is a Middle Eastern dessert with crispy, stringy pastry, layered with a sweet cheese filling. The original Dubai chocolate was launched by Dubai-based FIX Dessert Chocolatier in 2022.
