Here’s what to know about the recalled Costco chocolate and how to get a refund.
Costco recalls viral Rolling Pin Dubai Style Chocolate. How to get a refund
Customers who purchased the Rolling Pin Dubai Style Chocolate (item code #1932972) between May 1, 2025, and August 29, 2025, should return it to Costco for a refund.
While a wheat allergy can be fatal in severe cases, Costco says the health risks are likely minimal since gluten is listed on the allergen statement and gluten is found in wheat.
The Belgium-made chocolate snack debuted in Costco stores a few months ago and achieved online virality, thanks in part to the larger Dubai chocolate buzz that’s taking over the internet. The individually-wrapped pieces come in a pack of 50, and are made with milk chocolate pralines, kadayif (made of shredded phyllo dough) and pistachio filling.
“In the event there are any wheat allergies in your household, please return the item to your local Costco for a full refund,” Costco announced in a statement.
Wheat allergy symptoms

In severe cases, a wheat allergy can cause anaphylaxis, a life-threatening allergic reaction.
