This is intriguing. I haven't seen YT videos on Dubai chocolate but posts in these forums have me wondering. The expense has me tentative, naturally. I see the filling for sale online, not cheap (Amazon), and ready made, even less "cheap."Get yourself some Cake Puck molds!
The green Dubai filling is pretty popular! FWIW I like the new Mini set:

DIY is something I love to do. I've made my own Nutella a bunch of times (can't remember if I've bought a jar of the readymade!). Super simple: Chocolate and roasted ground hazelnuts, IIRC. Maybe some added sugar.
I used to make English toffee. That's not as easy and takes some doing, but it can come out terrific!
I perfected baklava, that was tricky, but once I got it right I stopped doing it. It's very rich! Basic ingredients are honey, flour and butter.
DIY halvah isn't very difficult. Basically sesame seeds and sugar.
