A celebration of single-origin cacao grown by farmers in our Saint Lucian Island Growers programme. Saint Lucia’s rich volcanic soil bestows a distinctive flavour profile, with malty notes that unfold to reveal fruity and floral undertones.

This Milk 50% Saint Lucian Island Growers hot chocolate has been on quite the journey to get to your Podcup™. First, we collect the wet cacao beans from our farmer partners, then we ferment and dry them on our own Saint Lucian cacao farm. Finally, we bring them to the UK to transform them into real chocolate flakes here in Cambridgeshire.

Made to be paired with the Velvetiser®*, the complete system for hot and cold barista-grade drinking chocolate, the process of crafting your hot chocolate is simple, yet oh-so-satisfying.

How? It’s all down to the Velvetiser’s vortex-effect – the force behind the unrivalled velvet-smooth texture and chocolate crema.

The InnerPod ridges and custom-designed whisk masterfully meld chocolate and milk or dairy alternative, heating to precisely the right temperature to melt the chocolate. All you have to do is pour and enjoy. Try dipping one of our Saint Lucian Island Growers 50% Milk Chocolate Batons for added decadence.

Imagined by our in-house chocolatiers, this Milk 50% Saint Lucian Island Growers hot chocolate forms part of our library of hot and cold drinking chocolate, all made according to our mantra: ‘more cacao, less sugar’. Will you try our Milky 50% next, or perhaps Cherry from our revolutionary cold drinking chocolate collection? Or you could head to our Chocolate Love Match quiz for a personal recommendation.

*Compatible with all Velvetiser models
