Which Should You Buy?
If you're on the hunt for a crowd-pleasing gourmand that delivers serious bang for your buck, Elixir of Dubai is a fantastic blind buy. It’s got that trending vanilla sweetness without being sickly. Absolutely smashing for the price.
Sand Dance is a polarising gourmand that splits opinion. For some, it's a boozy, chocolatey dream, an ultimate cosy indulgence. For others, it’s a cloying, burnt caramel nightmare lacking depth. Definitely one to sample first.
