Dubai’s buzzing with sweet drama, and no, we’re not talking influencers this time. Everyone’s been losing their minds over the now-iconic “Can’t Get Knafeh of It” bar from FIX Desserts, crispy knafeh, tahini, pistachio, and 72% dark chocolate, all in one luxurious AED 69 bite. But just when you thought Dubai had won the internet’s sweet tooth, Belgium has cheekily dropped its viral contender: The Angel Hair Bar by Tucho. And oh boy, it’s fluffy, it’s pink, and it’s got flair.
Let’s Talk About Belgium’s Angel Hair Bar By Tucho
Let’s paint the picture. The Angel Hair bar looks like it fell out of a candy-themed fairytale, blush-pink on the outside, but the real surprise is hidden within. We’re talking pişmaniye, a Turkish-style candyfloss made by blending roasted flour in butter with pulled sugar to create hair-fine strands of melt-in-the-mouth sweetness.
Now layer that with pistachio cream, and toss in delicate whispers of vanilla, raspberry, and pomegranate. The result? A wildly playful, multi-sensory experience that’s part chocolate bar, part magic trick.
So How Does It Compare To Dubai’s Viral Sweetie?
Dubai’s “Can’t Get Knafeh of It” is rich, nutty, and proud of its Middle Eastern roots. It crackles, melts and gives you that satisfying crunch-meets-creamy moment. But Tucho’s Angel Hair bar? It’s the mysterious new kid in the dessert school. It doesn’t crunch, it fluffs. It doesn’t roar, it whispers. And that whisper says, “I’m about to ruin all other chocolate for you.”
Where Dubai’s creation seduces you with its boldness, Tucho’s creation lures you in with soft surprises. Both bars are mouth-wateringly indulgent, but Angel Hair adds an element of play that keeps your taste buds on their toes.
Here’s what makes Angel Hair the dessert to stalk online
- Unique texture: Candyfloss inside a chocolate bar? We’re listening.
- Exotic flavour combo: Pistachio, raspberry, pomegranate, and vanilla. This is no ordinary bar.
- Gorgeous visuals: That pastel pink shell is Instagram bait.
- Exclusivity vibes: Priced at €21 (AED 87.48), and only delivered in select European countries, Austria, France, Germany, Spain, and Denmark. Sorry, UAE, you’ll need to hop a flight or make a friend in Europe.

While Dubai’s chocolate bar has made its mark, the Angel Hair bar is here to stir the pot (and your cravings). These viral treats aren’t just desserts, they’re edible storytelling. And right now, the tale of Turkish candyfloss wrapped in Belgian chocolate is winning hearts (and feeds).
So if you’ve had your fix of FIX, maybe it’s time to flirt with something fluffier. After all, life’s too short to eat boring chocolate.
