In the mood for something richer than your regular hot chocolate? How about a Dark Hot Chocolate instead? What makes this drink stand out is the magnificent silky thick texture. Made in Italy from the finest cocoa from Ghanaian and Ecuadorian plantations.
Perfect for being all snuggled up on the couch next to a fire, or if you are just looking for some peace of mind. Its impressive quality will please the eyes and the mind while soothing you from within. Make every sip of our Dark Hot Chocolate as delicious as it is a discovery, with a new sweet-bitter experience in every one of them.
What sets our Dark Hot Chocolate apart from Classic
While both are delicious options, our Dark Hot Chocolate offers a more intense and complex flavour profile due to its higher cocoa content. With 42% cocoa powder, compared to the usual 20-30% found in classic hot chocolate mixes, our dark blend provides a deeper chocolate taste that appeals to more refined palates.
Additionally, the lower sugar content allows for a less sweet but more balanced drink that is still indulgent and satisfying.
How to Make Dark Hot Chocolate
We recommend two easy methods of making our yummy Dark Hot Chocolate, a microwave or on the stove. Whatever method you go with, your taste buds are in for a jubilant surprise.
Microwave Method
- Start with your mug, pour in 250 ml of milk.
- Next, put it inside the microwave and heat for three minutes.
- Once completed, dissolve the sachet content and stir until well thoroughly.
- And there you have it, your rich, delicious drink is ready to be relished.
Hob Method
- Take 250 ml of milk in a sauce pan and heat it on a low medium heat till it steams but does not boil.
- Take it off the heat and add the contents of the sachet, mixing it thoroughly.
- Your smooth Dark Hot Chocolate is ready, enjoy.
The box contains: 10 sachets, each representing one serving.
Pairing and Toppings for Dark Hot Chocolate
Make it even more exciting by adding custom pairings and toppings that suit its bold and ultra-refined taste. As a much-needed contrast, feel free to include butter shortbread cookies or a few pieces of good quality cheese that will mortify the deep cocoa without being overbearingly rich.
Some whipped cream or just a little bit of cinnamon powder or nutmeg is nice to bring additional warmth to the dish’s top notes. And for the risk takers a bit of chilli powder makes sense here to heat things up a notch and in a tasteful manner along with a really strong chocolate.
Indulged alone or with a sweet or savoury partner or even both, the Dark Hot Chocolate guarantees a truly satisfying and unforgettable experience.
