Read more on where you can find Lidl's Dubai chocolate spread
LIDL'S highly-anticipated Dubai Style spread has finally hit the shelves - and it's sending customers into a spin.
So much so, the bargain retailer has been forced to place a shopping limit on the exotic treat.

The Della Sante Dubai Style Chocolate Cream spread combines the flavours of the insanely popular chocolate but in spreadable form.
That means you can slather it on toast, pile it onto pancakes, dip fruit in it or even spoon it from the jar.
The sweet and salty pots cost £4.99 or £3.99 for Lidl Plus members, which is far more expensive than the store's other chocolate spreads.
However, the price tag is not deterring customers, and the shop has implemented a strict three-jar-only policy.
One shared a snap of the toast topping on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group.
Followers flocked to the comment section to tag friends and family in the post.
Lidl has said it will be available "while stocks last" - so you may want to get in quick.
When Lidl launched its Dubai-style chocolate bar back in March, shoppers were queuing outside shops to get a taste.
The Sun spotted a queue outside the Gosport, Hampshire, store at 8am with shoppers eagerly waiting for the doors to open.
Chocolate fans have been going crazy for supermarket dupes of the expensive Dubai chocolate bars and they've been going viral on social media.
Lidl's version was the cheapest when it was brought out at £3.99.
Before it arrived in stores, the chocolate bar had been available on Lidl's TikTok Shop.
It wasn't around for long though as it sold out in a mere 84 minutes.
Numerous supermarkets and bargain stores have been jumping on the Dubai-style chocolate trend.
One of the most-anticipated was the M&S version, which it turned out was a new take on the viral Big Daddy chocolate bar.
The Big Daddy Pistachio is on the pricier end, costing £8.50 for a big 280g bar.
Similarly posh supermarket Waitrose also released a version for £10.
Despite the price, it was so popular the retailer had to impose a two-bar limit on shoppers.
Sainsbury's started selling a Lindt version of the Dubai-style chocolate for £10.
Iceland is selling two different bars: the Nelino Dubai-Style Chocolate (£2 for 62g) and Bolci Dubai Chocolate (£5 for 100g).
Bolci's Turkish-made treat is also available at Morrisons.
Meanwhile Home Bargains is selling Dubai Chocolate Cookies for the bargain price of £1.25.
IF you’ve ever shopped in Aldi or Lidl then you’ll probably have experienced its ultra-fast checkout staff.
Aldi’s speedy reputation is no mistake, in fact, the supermarket claims that its tills are 40 per cent quicker than rivals.
It’s all part of Aldi’s plan to be as efficient as possible - and this, the budget shop claims, helps keep costs low for shoppers.
Efficient barcodes on packaging means staff are able to scan items as quickly as possible, with the majority of products having multiple barcodes to speed up the process.
It also uses “shelf-ready” packaging which keeps costs low when it comes to replenishing stock.
