Searches in Perth are under half their 12-month high, and cafes are not picking it up: too few of the same cafes have it to read a change (3, against 3 in the 90 days before).
No cafe had it in the last 90 days, or the number of the same cafes with it fell by a quarter or more on the 90 days before (from at least 10 cafes) while searches did not rise, or searches are under half their 12-month high and cafes are not picking it up.
The stages run Emerging, Rising, Peaking, Mainstream, Fading. A trend can skip a stage or move back.

Perth's figures come from Google reviews and cafe menus (632 Perth cafes with a review or menu in the last 90 days). We don't read Perth cafes' posts yet, so a drink shows up here later than it would in posts.

31suburbs with cafes that have it
By Nov 2026 (so far)
Each bar is the Perth cafes with a customer review of it that month; Nov 2026 is not over yet, so its bar is so far.
6 suburbs are known only from a menu, which we can't date, so they count in the last month.
Dubai chocolate is on 10 Perth cafe menus and has been seen at cafes in 31 Perth suburbs.
Chocolate filled with pistachio cream and kataifi. In all our data to 14 Nov 2026, The Froth has seen it at 22 Perth cafes across 31 suburbs, in Google reviews and menus. The 23 in "Where to get one" are the cafes with it on their current menu or in a cafe or creator post.
It is on 10 Perth cafe menus right now, including Nabil's Acai Station in Mount Lawley, Donut Worry in East Victoria Park, Donut Worry in Northbridge and Sakura Desserts in Leederville. 13 more cafes have posted it, though it is not on their current menu. The "Where to get one" list on this page has every one, with the price where the menu gives one, links to the menu or post, and directions. Menus change, so check with the cafe before you go.
The average is $17.00, from 5 Perth cafe menus as of 15 Nov 2026. Most charge between $12.60 and $23.19; the lowest we have seen is $12 and the highest $23.99.
It is on a bigger share of Gold Coast cafes: 2.7% against Perth's 1.4%, over the last 90 days.
Perth cafes also sell Dubai chocolate as "kunafa chocolate". The Froth counts every one of these names as the same trend, from cafe menus and Google reviews.
Not at the moment. The Froth rates Dubai chocolate as Fading as of 14 Nov 2026: searches in Perth are under half their 12-month high, and cafes are not picking it up: too few of the same cafes have it to read a change (3, against 3 in the 90 days before). In the 90 days to 14 Nov 2026, 1.4% of the Perth cafes we see well (a current menu in that time) had it. Among the 1,049 cafes we have followed through both periods, 3 of the same cafes had it, against 3 in the 90 days before. Perth searches for it were down 80% in Aug to Oct 2026 compared with Aug to Oct 2025.
There were 2,490 searches for Dubai chocolate in Perth in Oct 2026, with all its names added up. Across the 23 months we have, from Dec 2024 to Oct 2026, it ranged from 2,490 searches (Sep 2026) to 19,700 (May 2025). These are monthly estimates of search demand in Perth.
The earliest Perth customer review about Dubai chocolate that The Froth has is from 28 Nov 2025. We only see what we collect, so that is when we first saw it, not when it started: it may have been sold earlier, here or elsewhere.
A typical Dubai chocolate bar, drawn from Perth cafes' menus and reviews, is built from the top down with green drizzle (white chocolate coloured green, piped over), chocolate top (more chocolate poured over to seal it), pistachio kataifi (pistachio cream folded through toasted kataifi pastry, for the crunch) and chocolate shell (milk chocolate set in a deep bar mould). Each cafe makes its own version, so this is a typical plate, not one cafe's recipe.
A cafe counts for Dubai chocolate from the first Google review we found that mentions it, and while it is on the cafe's current menu. Shares are of the cafes we see well: those with a current menu in the same 90 days, a chain counting once. A change compares the same cafes in the last 90 days with the 90 before, only among cafes we have followed through both, so newly added cafes never look like growth. The 90 days end on the latest day with new reviews or menus (14 Nov 2026), not today. Searches are monthly search demand in Perth with all of a trend's names added up.
