Jareesh Chocolate

جريش

A grandmother's dish, poured into chocolate.

Jareesh Chocolate takes a Saudi household staple — slow-cooked cracked wheat, warmed with spice — and reworks its flavor and texture into a chocolate bar.

The dish

What jareesh actually is

Jareesh is cracked, coarsely milled wheat, simmered for hours with meat, onion, and spice until it turns thick and porridge-like. It's a dish built for gathering — the kind that shows up at family tables across Saudi Arabia, not on a restaurant menu.

It's a dish of texture and warmth before it's a dish of any single flavor: the bite of the cracked grain, the slow-cooked depth, the spice that lingers. That's the part we tried to carry over — not a literal copy, a translation.

The grain

Cracked wheat folded into the chocolate itself, so the bar keeps a bite instead of melting into something smooth and forgettable.

The spice

Warm, familiar spice notes drawn from the original dish, carried at a level meant to remind you of home cooking, not mask the chocolate.

The idea

A dish most people only associate with home is the last thing they'd expect to find in a chocolate bar. That's the point.

The bar

Wrapped in deep green packaging, the wordmark set in both Arabic and English — a nod to a dish that's never needed translation at home, now finding one on the shelf.

Jareesh Chocolate is made in small batches, meant to be shared the way the original dish always was.
