Pistachio Kataifi Bar - PREORDER - ships December

This is my version of the trending candy bar made famous in Dubai.  It is not an exact copy, but it is meant to be authentic in every respect.  It does have my own touches.

I don't buy pistachio paste, I make it myself.  I grind the pistachios with a stone grinder for over 12 hours so that they are silky smooth.  I add sugar and toasted sesame seeds (to make tahini) as well as a touch of cocoa butter and sunflower oil.  I also gently toast kataifi dough with butter / ghee so that it turns a golden brown and gets a nice, crisp crunch and then add it to the pistachio to make the filling.

The bars are decorated by hand using colored cocoa butter. They are then formed in either milk or dark chocolate, then filled with the pistachio paste & kataifi shred. On TikTok it's called Pistachio Kanafeh, which is what I've made here, but Kanafeh is really a dessert made with kataifi and has cheese.

Also, note there is no white chocolate mixed with the pistachio.  That's just wrong if you see it out there.

Although I'm a dark chocolate fan, I recommend you get the milk chocolate version of this bar.  I think it's a better match to the pistachio/tahini flavor.

Order now and they are scheduled to ship in December due to unprecedented demand. It's an estimate, please be patient! We will hurry.
