'24-Carat Gold Biscuits' For Groom's Family? Wedding Clip From Saudi Arabia Goes Viral | WATCH

Lavish weddings are no strangers to the internet, but every now and then, a clip surfaces that takes the spectacle to an entirely new level. A recent video circulating widely on social media has done exactly that, leaving viewers stunned over what appeared to be 24-carat gold biscuits being distributed as wedding gifts.The 33-second clip captures a grand wedding setting, where several sharply dressed men are seated in a ceremonial arrangement. As the camera rolls, another man moves between them holding a box filled with shiny, gold-coloured bars. The scene quickly fuelled speculation online, with many posts claiming that the bride’s brother was presenting the “gold biscuits” to the groom’s family as part of the wedding celebrations.The idea

of gold bars being handed out at a wedding instantly caught attention. While some social media users described the gesture as “royal” and symbolic of immense wealth, others criticised it as unnecessary extravagance or performative opulence.The video is reportedly from Saudi Arabia, which added another layer of intrigue for international audiences unfamiliar with regional customs. Its rapid spread across platforms, including X, amplified the debate. One of the widely followed accounts, Frontalforce, shared the clip with the caption, ''Saudi wedding ceremony. Bride’s brother offers 24 karat Gold biscuits to Groom’s family. ''Note: Times now could not independently verify the authenticity of the viral post

As the video gained traction, however, a different narrative began to emerge. Several users stepped in to clarify that the glittering “gold biscuits” were not solid gold at all. Instead, they claimed the bars were luxury chocolates wrapped in gold foil, a popular and premium gifting choice in parts of the Middle East, especially during weddings and festive gatherings.One user wrote, ''These are simply chocolates served on special occasions with Saudi coffee.''

Another added a more detailed (and humorous) clarification: “Bro those aren't 24K gold biscuits, they're Patchi luxury chocolates wrapped in edible gold foil. That uncle wasn't stealing wealth—he was just securing his sugar rush before the Saudi coffee hits. Respect the commitment tho, man went full triple dip mode. Classic wedding flex, not quite Fort Knox level but still elite.”Luxury chocolate brands such as Patchi are well-known in the region for their gold-wrapped presentation and are often associated with high-end celebrations. What may have looked like a display of unimaginable wealth to some viewers was, in reality, a culturally common, albeit still lavish, sweet treat.
