“Currently, peanut desserts market is almost exhausted, Jail said Jailz Haking from CG Hack. Hazelnut seed prices increased by one third – a year ago, $ 7.65 per pound rose from $ 10.30 per pound.
The high demand for the Dubai chocolate exacerbated the lack of peanuts, the leading exporter of hazelnuts caused by a failed crop in the USA. Khaking, “Therefore, when the chocolate of Dubaisky emerged, the suggestions were small, the confectionery began to take all the grains in their hands. This has led to a revelation for the rest of the world,” he said.
According to Iranian customs, the export of pistachios in the UAE six months before March 2025 increased by 40% compared to the previous one. Behruz AHA, a member of the Iranian Aneesser Peanut Producers Association, says that various typical products such as peanut oil and paste are available because of excess. Since the demand for green hazelnut products does not fall, companies continue to produce goods with their content. For example, Lindt released a peanut cream and Easter eggs to satisfy the consumer.
Recall that chocolate tiles with pistachios filling have become a global feeling after a video collected in Tiktok in December 2023. The video won more than 120 million views and aroused excitement around Dubai Chocolate.
