With around seven 35g servings in every 250g bag you can now enjoy our silky smooth house white in liquid form. With a lingering hit of vanilla, this is no ordinary drinking chocolate. But, if you want to make the most of our Vanilla-White Hot Chocolate flakes you need to join the Velvetiser revolution. Press the button and let the Velvetiser work its magic. In 2.5 minutes, you’ll have delectable, velvetised hot chocolate. Let’s take a look at how the Velvetiser works and explore top hot chocolate-making tips to take your cocoa-brewing to the next level. What is the Velvetiser? It’s officially hot chocolate season. And when it comes to creamy, indulgent hot chocolates at home, there’s one product that’s been making a serious splash online. On the topic of pre and post-workout elixirs, we’ve got to mention — you can also use your Velvetiser to make gorgeously chocolatey protein shakes. Use either our caffeine-free hot chocolate sachets or Chocolate Latte Sachets, which will help your shake provide you with that extra boost. The end result will be a half mocha, half protein shake — we’ll never say no to that! Indulge in the creamy, milky goodness you adore but benefit from an added dash of protein.

Just choose your flavour. Add our flakes of real chocolate to your choice of dairy, plant milk or water. Then press the button and let the patented velvetising process deliver luxurious cloud-like chocolate velvet. Unfortunately, it’s a no. In case you’re still tempted, the brand is unequivocal, saying you should “never put your Velvetiser in the dishwasher.” That also includes the removable whisk. They also each blind-tasted a hot chocolate from those milk frothers that claim to also make hot chocolate. And ta-dah! In just two-and-a-half minutes, you’ll have a rich, luxurious hot chocolate ready to drink. Can I put any hot chocolate in a Velvetiser? It would be ideal if the Velvetiser could be popped straight into the dishwasher, although the fact you can fill it with water and soap, turn it on and leave it to do the hard work for you definitely lessens the blow.Hot chocolate, but not as you know it. Our chocolatiers have worked together to create a drinking chocolate like no other. Designed to be less creamy and sweet than the usual drinking chocolate, our drinking chocolate promises an incredible smoothness and deep cacao flavours. We use grated pieces of real chocolate to make sure you can taste all the nuanced cacao notes in each sip. We hope you’ll be delighted with your Velvetiser and won’t want to part with it! However, we also understand that you may not want to keep your Velvetiser, or something has gone wrong. It’s satin-smooth and light as a feather - what white chocolate lovers’ dreams are made of. But we didn't stop at creating a perfectly creamy white hot chocolate. We like our chocolate to have a certain je ne sais quoi and have laced this white hot chocolate with notes of Madagascan vanilla to make it even more irresistible. We promise that it will be unlike any white hot chocolate you might have tried before. Sprinkle in your hot chocolate. If using one of our hot chocolate sachets, use the whole contents. For our larger pouches, you’ll want 35g (about 6 heaped teaspoons) of hot chocolate flakes.

The Velvetiser Hot Chocolate Maker from Hotel Chocolat is the best machine to make delicious, smooth and luxurious hot chocolate. Since it's release in 2018, the Velvetiser has been in high demand ever since it's launch and we can see why as we gave it 5 stars in our Hotel Chocolat Velvetiser review. If you want to take your hot chocolate to the next level, get creative with your toppings. We think our emphasis on producing premium, high-quality, high-cocoa chocolate means our hot chocolates always shine on their own.

What about for coffee?

At Hotel Chocolat, we believe that whatever the time of day, there is a chocolate to suit. When it comes to the question of the best time to enjoy hot chocolate, there really is no set hour!
