Ghirardelli Chocolate Company Launches New Hot Fudge Sundae Experience

An exciting, limited-time launch in San Francisco will reinterpret the rich flavors of Dubai Chocolate in the form of a Sundae

SAN LEANDRO, Calif., March 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, the Ghirardelli Chocolate Company is excited to announce the debut of its limited Dubai Chocolate Sundae on Saturday, March 8, 2025, in San Francisco, CA, while supplies last.

For one day only, chocolate lovers can indulge in the Dubai Chocolate Sundae—a luxurious fusion of Ghirardelli's world-famous hot fudge and the global flavor sensation known as Dubai chocolate. The viral pistachio chocolate was first created by Sarah Hamouda of Dubai-based Fix Dessert Chocolatier, and Ghirardelli's spin on the trend is a sundae featuring layers of vanilla ice cream, handmade hot fudge, and a mixture of pistachio butter, white chocolate, and kataifi (shredded phyllo). A gold-leafed Ghirardelli Milk Chocolate Caramel SQUARE is added on top, along with whipped cream and caramel sauce.

"As a brand rooted in crafting unforgettable chocolate experiences, we are excited to bring this special creation to our flagship location in San Francisco," said Lacey Zane, Vice President of Restaurant & Retail at Ghirardelli Chocolate Company. "The Dubai Chocolate Sundae is the best of Ghirardelli tradition while bringing a fresh take on the latest viral sensation."

The Dubai Chocolate Sundae Experience launches on March 8, 2025, at noon in Ghirardelli Square, San Francisco—the birthplace of Ghirardelli. Guests can immerse themselves in the timeless charm of Ghirardelli while indulging in this innovative dessert. Available only while supplies last, chocolate lovers are encouraged to arrive early to ensure they don't miss out on this decadent treat.

Established in 1852, Ghirardelli has been a leader in the chocolate industry, earning a reputation for crafting premium confections that combine tradition with innovation. Over its 173-year history, Ghirardelli has consistently set the standard for quality and creativity, delighting generations of chocolate lovers. This one-day-only event highlights the chocolatier's unwavering commitment to creating one-of-a-kind experiences that push the boundaries of what can be done with chocolate. From its iconic hot fudge to this Dubai Chocolate Sundae, Ghirardelli continues to reimagine the possibilities of flavor and indulgence, offering customers extraordinary moments that are as memorable as they are delicious.

Following the San Francisco launch, the Dubai Chocolate Sundae Experience will make its way to the Big Apple on Saturday, March 22, 2025. Available again for one day only at Ghirardelli's NYC location at the Empire State Building, this exciting offering will bring the same rich, decadent flavors to the East Coast, giving even more fans a chance to savor this special creation.
