IHOP Debuts Dubai Chocolate Pancakes

IHOP is emphasizing the “International” part of its name with its latest pancake stacks. Today, it announced two new limited-edition entrees, inspired by the viral Dubai Chocolate, and will be available on Monday, August 4.

Dubai Chocolate is everywhere—but breakfast?! Yes, IHOP decided that it should be the first family dining restaurant to offer the flavor in combination with its pancakes via the Luxe Dubai Chocolate Pancakes and the Dubai Chocolate Pancakes.

“Earlier this year, an IHOP restaurant team member crafted a pancake version of the infamous Dubai Chocolate bar, sparking social buzz and excitement and garnering viral fame on TikTok,” said Chef Art Carl, Vice President of Culinary at IHOP. “Our culinary, marketing, and social teams are consistently listening to social and trends and immediately noticed that guests were craving something more, so we took it up a notch in the test kitchen to deliver an exciting new stack. Inspired by Dubai’s iconic decadence and served with IHOP’s world-famous comfort, this isn’t just a pancake—it’s a passport to flavor for our guests stateside.”

In just two months, IHOP created the most expensive pancake it has ever served, the Luxe Dubai Chocolate Pancakes—valued at over $100. The first 25 people who show up at participating restaurants in New York, Austin, and Los Angeles, on August 4, will have the exclusive chance to taste this stack for free!

Featuring handmade Madagascar Vanilla whipped cream, a whole Dubai Chocolate bar, edible 24K gold flakes and gold glitter on top of our Dubai Chocolate flavored buttermilk pancakes, IHOP Luxe Dubai Chocolate Pancakes may be the most decadent thing it has ever made.

After the first 25 stacks are served, guests can still get a taste of the trend with IHOP’s original Dubai Chocolate Pancakes for $13 while supplies last.

Made with roasted kataifi, pistachio cream, and hazelnut spread layered between buttermilk pancakes and topped with chocolate curls and crushed pistachios, IHOP Original Dubai Chocolate Pancakes are as delicious as its bougie brother—just a bit more budget conscious.

You can find both Dubai Chocolate stacks in the following IHOP restaurant locations on Monday, August 4 starting at 12PM local time:
