🍫 Wait… Dubai Chocolate in Monterey?



If you’ve ever wondered why people are talking about Dubai chocolate in California — you’re not alone. Our recent Instagram Reel breaks down the story behind this cult-favorite chocolate brand, the knockoffs, and how Monterey has its very own local version made right here on the Central Coast.

Thanks for being part of our foodie family — whether you’ve joined a tour, ordered a tote, or followed along online.
