Luxury Dubaichocolate.

A Dubai chocolatier made kataifi the crunch at the heart of a luxury chocolate line, then needed production that could keep up with hotels, gift shops and Ramadan.

01

The challenge

A brilliant idea.A slow kitchen.

Javed set out to create a luxury chocolate line inspired by Middle Eastern textures and global flavours, with premium chocolate wrapped around kataifi fillings.

The idea worked. As his brand grew, though, making kataifi fillings by hand could not deliver the same quality in the volumes he needed. Supplying hotels, gift shops and corporate clients during Ramadan and the festive season became a race against time.

02

The solution

Fine strands,made in-house.

Javed brought in a high-performance kataifi machine from OctoFoods to support his chocolate production.

The machine gave him fine kataifi strands for the crunchy fillings and decorative details inside his bars and pralines. Automation made production faster, cut waste and made every piece more uniform.

Fine kataifi strands, made in-house, inside every bar and praline.
