100% Dark Hot Chocolate Pouch 250g , , hi-res
Get ready for an intense hot chocolate experience. With no added flavours or sweetness, our 100% dark hot chocolate is simply gossamer-fine flakes of real chocolate. Add to hot milk and watch them melt effortlessly for a silky-smooth experience. It’s the perfect way to enjoy the nuanced, complex notes of cacao with no distractions.
 
Made with single-origin chocolate from Honduras, our 100% Dark drinking chocolate offers a deep, fruity profile with multiple layers of nuanced flavours. Real grated chocolate adds a whole new texture and taste dimension – it’s a far cry from mixing cocoa powder with milk. Although both are made from cocoa solids, the chocolate has a higher quantity of cocoa butter, the natural fat found in the cocoa bean. This gives it a smooth melt and a richer flavour. Taste the malty, almost-savoury notes of pure cacao blended with your choice of milk. Whole milk or oat milk add a rich creaminess, or if you’re looking for a powerful cacao kick with a savoury edge, you can simply add water.
 
We use more cacao and less sugar in all our recipes, and this one contains no added sugar, so you can adjust the flavour to suit your taste. Just add milk or water for the full intense experience, or sprinkle in a teaspoon of sugar if you prefer it a little sweeter. We’ve taken care to create the perfect blend of cacao beans to give a complex flavour that is delightfully rich without being overpowering. To create that unexpected smoothness, we conch the beans for longer than usual, which tones down the bitterness, bringing out those nuanced layers.
 
For best results, pair with the Velvetiser™. We partnered with Dualit to create an in-home hot chocolate system that creates barista-grade hot chocolate in minutes. Just add your choice of milk, sprinkle your chocolate flakes, and press the button. It’s that easy. Pour it into your favourite mug, snuggle up on the sofa, sit back and savour that deeply satisfying taste of more cacao, less sugar. Bliss.
