If you know about Dubai, you’ll already have an idea that it is home to some of the best things in the world. Let it be skyscrapers, festivals, cultures, food or chocolates, Dubai has got you covered in the best way. While Belgium and Switzerland are famous for their chocolate-making skills, Dubai is renowned for some of the most amazing varieties and places to get the finest chocolates.
I was lucky enough to satisfy my sweet tooth cravings at some of the best places during my last trip to Dubai. Each and every place I visited for my chocolate endeavors has something new and amazing to offer. Whether you are traveling on your own or you have booked Dubai holiday packages, a visit to one of these places is a must. Let’s begin our journey into the sweet world of Dubai chocolate shops.
9 Places that Every Chocolate Lover Must Visit in Dubai
- Mirzam Chocolate Makers
This name would always come up when you search for the best chocolate places in Dubai. The reason? It is much more than a shop or a cafe. It is a factory of happiness for the chocolate lovers where you can get a chance to watch how they produce their chocolates. Starting right from cocoa roasting to packing bars, each and everything is crafted with love and attention to detail. Not only can you taste the sweet treats there but also buy as much as you want. If you are a chocolate buff like me, don’t forget to sign up for a tasting workshop.
- Patchi Chocolates
Patchi is one of the most famous and commonly found chocolate stores in Dubai. You can get a hold of its branches easily at popular spots like the Dubai Mall and Mall of the Emirates. I would suggest the one at the Dubai Mall as they have a wide range of goods. I loved their pistachio truffles and pralines as such varieties are not commonly available.
- Mélange Dubai
Another place that I will recommend all chocolate lovers to visit during their Dubai holidays is Mélange. The place is not only famous for chocolates but its cakes, tarts and cookies also deserve a special mention. My best picks here include chocolate fudge slices and coffee cookies. Don’t forget their coffee as it is also world-class. You can find them in Dubai Mall or the Business Bay studio in Bayswater Tower.
- Godiva Dubai
Godivia is a name that almost every chocolate lover in the world is familiar with. It stands in line with brands like Lindt and Ghirardelli. If you are a chocoholic and don’t visit Godiva while you are in Dubai, I am sorry you have wasted your time and money. Godiva in Dubai is not only about satisfying your cravings, rather it is more of an experience. Its cafes at the Mall of Emirates and City Walk are the places where sweetness is not only brewed, it is also felt in air. Try their varieties with a hot drink and fall in love all over again with chocolates. I am sure you will go for another serving and also get some packed on your way back.
- Cocoville
This is another upscale place in Dubai selling artisanal creations made with all-natural and imported ingredients. Head over to the Meydan neighborhood to indulge in the classics this cafe has to offer. I stayed in Meydan for a couple of weeks and I was a regular there. Their taste is literally out of this world and you will love their handmade truffles the most.
- Al Nassma Chocolate
The reason behind Al Nassma’s popularity is that they are the first company to use camel milk in their chocolates. A couple of brands followed the suite but couldn’t come up with the same taste. If you want to check out their full range, head over to their boutique Deira’s Gold Souk and learn more about how they craft these heavenly treats. Chocolate makers at Al Nassma only use four ingredients (cocoa butter, vanilla, sugar and honey) to make their varieties and let me tell you that they are very good at what they do.
- Delice Gourmet
This is another excellent chocolate shop cum bakery that you must visit during your trip to Dubai. Delice is known for its wide range of offerings such as luxury chocolates, macarons and sweets. I was shocked to see their extensive range of products during my visit there, thanks to the recommendation from the travel agency from which I booked my Dubai holiday packages. You can even get a rose-flavored chocolate from them or vegan varieties if you prefer.
- Ganache Chocolatier
You will be surprised to know that there are around 40 chocolate factories in Dubai. However, they are not as huge as the ones in Switzerland or Belgium. Out of these 40, Ganache has quite a large fan base. It uses ingredients imported from France, Belgium and Switzerland to create one of the finest chocolates in the town. I was impressed by their attention to detail and a large range of products. Plus, you can get the chocolates wrapped and gift packed with an assortment of your choice.
- Candylicious
Be careful when you take your kids or even teenagers to this place as you will end up making a big dent to your budget. Candylicious is the largest candy shop in Dubai and offers one of the biggest collections of world’s best candies, chocolates and other sweet treats. The shop takes you right back to the vintage times with its colorful and rare varieties.
