Chocolate, pistachios, and kataifi have taken over the world thanks to the Dubai bar!
Â
But did you know that in 2019, Chef Melissa Coppel had already created a bonbon with a similar concept? She filled her chocolates with a kataifi pistachio praliné and a white chocolate orange blossom ganache.
Â
The idea started with Künefe or Knafeh. The first time Chef Melissa tried this Middle-Eastern dessert (consisting of a soft cheese covered in crunchy kataifi layers that’s served hot with a scoop of ice cream and syrup), she was so fascinated that she had to make something with it!
Â
Six years later, these Künefe candy bars take those same flavor notes to give Dubai bars a floral, unique touch.

Did you know the vanilla beans on these turrones (or Spanish chocolate candy bars) are not real?
Flavor meets artistry in these Vanilla and Macadamia Turrón bars by Chef Enric Monzonis.
In this recipe, you will start by making a long shelf life Salted Vanilla Bean Toffee that is fudgy, gooey, and has a nice touch of salt.
Then, Chef Monzonis shows you his fuss-free oven method for caramelizing macadamia nuts (or any nut) and turning them into a creamy, unique praliné recipe.
But this recipe isn’t all about the flavors. Elevate your chocolate candy bars by giving them a white velvet finish with vanilla bean seeds using the spray gun.
Finish your turrones by creating a simple dark chocolate replica (or trompe l’oeil) of a vanilla bean.
The contrast of colors and finishing touches—between matte and glossy, black and white—makes this turrón a sight to see (and enjoy).
