What is a Dubai chocolate strawberry?

It's just a strawberry with pistachio butter inside, dipped in chocolate—usually twice—and topped with crushed pistachios. That’s it. It sounds fancy, but once you make one, you’ll realize it’s actually really simple. Just layered.

Why do people call them “Dubai” strawberries?

No idea who named them that first, but it caught on. I think it’s because they look kind of luxurious, like something you’d find in a boutique dessert shop. Pistachio, chocolate, the whole “extra” vibe. It’s more of a style than a recipe.

Why are the ones online so expensive?

Because people will pay for pretty things in nice boxes. You’re paying for ingredients, yes, but also packaging, branding, and the feeling of getting something special. When you make them at home, you skip the price tag and still get the “wow.”

What’s the green filling made of?

Pistachio butter. You can buy it or make it. It’s basically blended pistachios, sometimes a little sweet, sometimes just nutty. It’s what makes the whole bite feel rich but not too sweet. If you like earthy flavors, you’ll love it.
