JackRabbit is heading to Gulfood 2026
JackRabbit Chocolate Studio will be exhibiting at Gulfood, one of the world’s leading food and beverage trade exhibitions, taking place in Dubai this January.
It is a global stage and a serious marketplace – exactly where chocolate that combines artistry with flavour innovation belongs.

Not new to the world. Just new to the room.
JackRabbit isn’t making its first international appearance. Our chocolates already travel – we have an established presence in Japan, a market known for its uncompromising standards, where quality, detail and flavour must be earned. Gulfood is simply the next stop in a global conversation we’ve been having for a while now.
What we’re bringing to Dubai is the same thing we bring everywhere: bold flavour, considered design and a commitment to chocolate that goes beyond the expected.
Chocolate, but make it an experience
At JackRabbit Chocolate Studio, chocolate isn’t just something you eat. It’s something you experience. We sculpt it, paint it, play with flavours and push it just far enough to make things interesting.
And that approach has earned us international recognition – including being named a World Chocolate Masters Regional Finalist and receiving multiple International Chocolate Awards – and has taken our chocolate well beyond South Africa. Awards matter, but what matters more is that moment when someone tastes our edible art and says, “Wait… this is chocolate?”
What you’ll taste at our stand
We’re curating a lineup that shows exactly what JackRabbit does best. Expect things like:
- Cinnamon marshmallows made with fish gelatine
- Dark chocolate–coated pistachios, rich and indulgent
- Handcrafted chocolate bonbons in milk, dark and white
- Spiced gingerbread bites, inspired by comforting, nostalgic flavours
- Sample chocolate slabs in milk, dark and white
- Chocolate bars in milk, dark, and white chocolate, highlighting our bean-to-bar approach
Familiar flavours. Unexpected twists. Zero bored
Why Gulfood?
Because Gulfood is where conversations happen. The kind that turn into partnerships, wholesale relationships and creative collaborations. We’re here to meet buyers, distributors and brands who are looking for chocolate that stands out, not blends in.
If you’re after something predictable, we might not be your people. But if you’re after something memorable – let’s talk.
See you in Dubai!
Huge thanks to ITC for the continued support and sponsorship that make moments like this possible.
