Inspired by one of confectionery’s biggest viral trends, this recipe takes the pistachio-led appeal of Dubai chocolate beyond the chocolate bar. A rich Callebaut 811 dark chocolate brownie is layered with pistachio, tahini and chocolate, bringing together deep cocoa notes, nuttiness and contrasting textures. Finished with Callebaut W2 and 823, it turns a highly recognisable flavour trend into an indulgent bakery creation designed for the counter.
