Our Dark 70% Saint Lucian Island Growers hot chocolate showcases the distinctive flavour of Saint Lucian cacao, courtesy of the island’s unique volcanic soil. Notes of red cherry unfurl to reveal the subtle warmth of almonds.
We closely guard these single-origin cacao beans – from the Island Growers of Saint Lucia to our own cacao farm, and finally to Cambridgeshire, where we transform them into our Dark 70% Saint Lucian Island Growers hot chocolate sachets.
Crafted with real chocolate flakes, these 10 hot chocolate sachets are designed to pair with the
Velvetiser®* – the complete system for hot and cold barista-grade drinking chocolate. Together, they create a velvet-smooth texture with an unrivalled chocolate crema.
The secret? We call it the vortex-effect. The
Velvetiser’s patented InnerPod ridges and customdesigned whisk simultaneously fold and meld real chocolate with milk, while heating precisely to the optimum temperature.
Simply add milk or a dairy alternative (this recipe is vegan-friendly†) with a single-serve sachet to the
Velvetiser, let it work its magic, then pour into your
Podcup™. For added decadence, try stirring it with a Saint Lucian Island Growers 70% Dark Chocolate Baton. You’ll never use a spoon again.
Ready for more? Peruse our ever-growing library of hot and cold drinking chocolate, from deep Dark 85% to zesty Orange, or our revolutionary cold recipes, from Classic to Cherry. Not sure where to start? Take our Chocolate Love Match quiz to find the flavour profile for you.
*Compatible with all
Velvetiser models
†We believe this chocolate is suitable for vegans, however as it is made in the same environment as our milk chocolate, we cannot guarantee it is free from milk.
How to make your hot drinking chocolate: 1. Pour milk or dairy alternative into your
Velvetiser, up to the max indicator
2. Add in the real chocolate flakes from a single-serve sachet
3. Turn the dial right, press the button and let the
Velvetiser work its magic
4. Pour into your
Podcup™ and enjoy
