3 Ways to Sell More Kitchen Remedy Desserts This Weekend (Without Extra Work)

Weekends in a cafe are mental. You’ve got a line out the door, the dockets are piling up, and the last thing you or your chefs need is a complicated dessert order that takes ten minutes to plate. But you still need those high-margin add-ons to make the shift worth it. The easiest way to bump up your average spend without adding a single second of extra prep time is to lean on stuff that’s already sitting in your fridge or pantry.

We’re talking about the Kitchen Remedy Dubai Coconut Raw Slice and our Chocolate Granola. When you pair these two together, you aren't just selling a snack; you're selling a premium dessert experience that looks like it took way more effort than it actually did.

Here are three dead-simple ways to move more stock this weekend and keep your customers coming back for the "fancy" specials you didn't actually have to cook.

1. The Afternoon "Pick-Me-Up" Bundle

Most people walk in for a coffee and maybe a muffin. They’re looking for a sugar hit to get through the 3 PM slump. The Dubai Coconut Raw Slice is a beast: it’s a 90g portion, so it feels substantial. It’s rich, it’s got that deep coconut flavor, and it’s naturally gluten-free and vegan, which covers about 90% of the dietary requirements people throw at you these days.

Instead of just leaving them in the display cabinet, train your team to offer a "Dubai & Flat White" bundle. It’s a classic pairing. The bitterness of a well-poured coffee cuts straight through the richness of the raw slice.

Because these come in a 10-pack for $65, your cost per slice is $6.50. You can easily sell these for $12 or $13 as a standalone, or bundle them with a coffee for $16. It’s a massive margin for something you literally just have to take out of the box and put on a plate.

2. The "Warmed & Crumbled" Dessert Special

If you want to charge top-dollar for a dessert but don't have the hands in the kitchen to plate something from scratch, this is your secret weapon.

Take one of the Dubai Coconut Raw Slices and pop it in the microwave or a low oven for just a few seconds. You aren't trying to cook it; you just want to soften those natural oils so it gets that slightly fudgy, melt-in-your-mouth texture.

While that’s warming up, grab a handful of the Kitchen Remedy Chocolate Granola.

The Chocolate Granola isn't just for breakfast bowls. It’s packed with clusters that stay crunchy even when they hit something warm. Sprinkle a generous amount of the granola over the warmed slice. The contrast between the soft, rich coconut base and the crunchy, cocoa-heavy granola makes it feel like a high-end restaurant dessert.

Add a scoop of dairy-free vanilla ice cream or a dollop of coconut yogurt, and suddenly you’ve got a $16 to $18 "Warm Dubai Crumble" on your specials board. The prep time is under 60 seconds, and the perceived value is huge.

3. The Grab-and-Go Visual Hack

Humans eat with their eyes first. If your slices are hidden behind a fogged-up glass cabinet at knee height, they won't sell.

Grab a 2kg bag of the Chocolate Granola and use it as "edible decor." Fill a small glass jar with the granola and sit it right next to a stacked plate of the Dubai slices on your counter (under a cloche, obviously).

When people see the raw ingredients: the oats, the seeds, the rich chocolate clusters: it triggers that "wholefood" craving. It makes the Dubai slice look even more artisanal.

And don't forget the retail side of things. If they love the crunch on their warmed slice, they’ll probably want to take a bag home. We stock the Chocolate Granola in 500g retail packs too, so you can double-dip on the sale. They buy the slice to eat now and the bag of granola for their breakfast tomorrow.
