There’s nothing quite like the excitement of peeling open the doors of an Advent calendar to reveal the chocolate treasure waiting inside. Except, perhaps, opening the door to reveal a full-size single-serve sachet of velvety-smooth, intensely creamy hot chocolate each day…

Count down to Christmas by curling up with a cup of hot chocolate or settling down to savour a cool, refreshing cup of iced chocolate for 24 days of December. With a selection of recipes from across our drinking chocolate library, each of the doors on this hot chocolate Advent calendar reveals a new and exciting flavour to try. Will it be a classic favourite such as Salted Caramel – comforting, malty caramel-milk lifted with a pinch of sea salt? Or a festive favourite, reimagined? Mince Pie takes pinches of cinnamon and notes of spiced fruit and combines them with creamy chocolate for a deeply chocolatey take on the classic pastry.

With a selection of best-loved classics and seasonal limited editions from our library of drinking chocolate recipes, you’ll be treated to a taste of all our chocolate flavour profiles – from deep, decadent 85% Dark, to astonishingly creamy Vanilla-White, via warming Chilli, zesty Salted Caramel & Clementine and tongue-tingling Mint. Each one is made only with real chocolate flakes, so you can be assured that you’ll get that same deeply satisfying taste you experience with our pralines, truffles and solid chocolates, even in our white hot chocolate.

Of course, each single-serve of chocolate flakes is best when made with the Velvetiser™ – it’s the only way to get that super-silky, cloud-like finish. If, however, you don’t have a Velvetiser (yet!), you can still make each one on the hob with your choice of milk or dairy alternative.

And if you know someone else who owns a Velvetiser, or just adores hot chocolate, this drinking chocolate Advent calendar makes a truly thoughtful gift, and the perfect way to share Christmas cheer.
