About Dubai chocolate

Dubai chocolate is milk chocolate filled with pistachio cream and toasted kadayif (shredded pastry), the bar that went viral from a Dubai chocolatier. It is chocolate and nut fat with sugar, about 530–560 per 100 g. These numbers come from the labels of Lindt’s and Lidl’s Dubai-style bars; shop-made bars with a thicker filling vary.

In PlateDiary

A rough number for the dishes you save — only if you want one.

Off unless you turn them on

Calories in PlateDiary are off unless you turn them on. Switch them on and, when PlateDiary AI reads your photo of the table, each dish gets one rough “~” number. Accept it or change it; a number you correct is remembered for that dish. With Calories off, the app looks exactly as it did before.

A read sends small pictures of the cut-out dishes, with the place's name as a hint — never the table photo, faces or your location. Calorie numbers never go to analytics, and nothing is written to a health app. PlateDiary AI starts with free tries; here is how it works.
