Crumbl Review: Dubai Chocolate Strawberry Brownie
This one sounds like a lot going in — chocolate, strawberry, brownie, and that whole “Dubai chocolate” concept layered on top — so the expectation is something rich with a bit of contrast from the fruit. The real question is whether the strawberry actually balances it or just gets lost.
The base is very much that brownie-style cookie again. It’s soft, dense, and leans toward fudgy rather than cakey. It holds together well but still has that melt-in-your-mouth feel that makes it closer to a brownie than a traditional cookie.
Flavour-wise, the chocolate comes through first. It’s rich and smooth, not overly bitter, and it sets the tone for the whole cookie. Then the strawberry comes in — and this is where it actually works better than expected.
Instead of feeling artificial or too sharp, the strawberry adds a lighter, slightly sweet contrast that cuts through the chocolate just enough. It doesn’t overpower anything, but it’s noticeable enough to keep the cookie from feeling too heavy.
The “Dubai chocolate” aspect adds that extra richness — usually in the form of a smooth topping or drizzle — which just reinforces the chocolate side rather than changing the flavour completely.
Texture is where this one stands out a bit more. You’ve got the dense brownie base paired with softer topping elements, and depending on how the strawberry is incorporated, you get a bit of variation in each bite.
This is still a rich cookie overall, but the strawberry does just enough to make it feel slightly lighter than the typical chocolate-heavy options.
Final Verdict:
A rich brownie cookie with a nice strawberry balance that keeps it from being too heavy. Surprisingly well-rounded.
