Frankfurt, Germany: A German court has banned a discount supermarket chain from selling a version of "Dubai chocolate" made outside the Emirati city, according to a ruling seen by AFP on Tuesday.
Dubai Chocolate, filled with pistachio paste and thin pastry, became a viral sensation on social media platforms such as TikTok, with some videos racking up tens of millions of views.
The sought-after chocolate bars sparked mass runs on shops last year, and have resold for hundreds of euros online after selling out in stores.
The Cologne court ruling, which can be appealed, followed a complaint brought by businessman Andreas Wilmers, who imports "Dubai chocolate" from the Gulf city itself.
He complained to the court about supermarket chain Aldi Sued stocking "Alyan Dubai Handmade Chocolate", which is actually produced in Turkiye.
