Hotel Chocolat's Velvetiser 20 Ultimate Luxury hot chocolate has been rated among the best in a recent taste test, praised for its rich, indulgent flavour and thick viscosity. The 55% dark chocolate, made with directly sourced chocolate flakes, is recommended at a 1:5 ratio of chocolate to liquid, resulting in a sweet yet balanced drink with floral notes of citrus, raisin and roasted caramel.
The product has earned a Great Taste One Star award and is commended for its sustainability policies. Tasters noted its 'rich, indulgent and full of flavour' profile, making it a top contender in the premium hot chocolate category.
While instant hot chocolates often contain skimmed milk powder and emulsifiers, the Velvetiser's simple flakes of Venezuelan criollo milk chocolate offer a more authentic experience. The drink is very sweet, with nutty notes of vanilla and salted caramel, and a thin but satisfying viscosity.
For those seeking a luxurious treat, the Hotel Chocolat Velvetiser 20 Ultimate Luxury is a worthy splurge, delivering an unparalleled flavour that stands out among both mid-range and premium options.
