Whittard 70% Cocoa Hot Chocolate 300g

Perfection! Little sugar added, but not too much

Bought for hubby as he loves chocolate and spicy things. It's really good and it is not too hot, its just mild and gentle warmth in the throat which is perfect during winter. Can't wait to have these again for the coming season!

Now then, every day I make myself a Chilli Mocha latte, I have been for years. Normally I use a square and a half of Lyndt Chilli Chocolate and then coffee and then warm milk. Recently Lyndt have upped their prices and also I found myself occasionally stealing a square to nibble on so I got through the bars too quickly anyway. I thought that perhaps this little cylinder of joy might be the answer. Actually, I think it does work out a little cheaper than multiple bars of chocolate but basically it's just a good quality hot chocolate with some chilli powder added and so I figured - wait ... why don't I just do that?To be honest, my chilli powder / hot chocolate mix is not quite as good but I can make do (for heavens sake - in the grand scheme of things - it's hardly a personal crisis!). So my recommendation would be this as a birthday/Christmas gift to someone who loves this sort of thing - unless you're unpleasantly wealthy with lots of dosh. If so - go for the Hotel Chocolat version which is even more pricey but tastes nicer.

Excellent product. Whittard instant tea and hot chocolate products are the best.

This chocolate is not as silky as Whittard which I bought last time. Whittard seemed to have altered the formula.

Thank goodness for Amazon as our local Whittards on the high street has gone. There are many drinking chocolates on the market but if you like true dark chocolate without added sweeteners then this one is for you. Ensure you look for the 70% version and enjoy.

Lovely hot chocolate. The chilli isn't strong, it's a subtle warmth that cumulates as you drink. I am not great with dairy so made this up just using hot water and it still came out very thick and nice.

I love Whittards products and the actual product is great, however for some reason it's a good 25-30% cheaper on the actual Whittards website.

Excellent Cocoa mix. Great for brownies.

I purchased this on a whim, hoping it would taste somewhat like Godiva hot cocoa. I was totally wrong. It's not too bad if you like the bitter taste. It's just a little too bitter for my taste. I mixed it with some Ghirardelli hot cocoa I have, and it tasted much better.

Very good quality chocolate drink

I love this

I like the 70% cocoa health factor BUT a truly “blah” taste - I personally add Simply Chocolate Syrup for taste.Most EXPENSIVE tasteless drink I ever experienced.
