Champion: Dualit 72% Dark Chocolate Chunks

Designed to work with a range of at-home milk frothers, these single-serve hot chocolate sachets are driven by demand for premium, café-style drinks without venturing outside. The 72% cocoa blend uses premium Belgian chocolate that can be poured directly onto milk in a frother to create hot chocolate in a few minutes.

Given the chance to try it themselves, our judges felt it created “a delightful chocolate taste with great depth and a very silky-smooth texture”. It would make for a “really luxurious treat”, said another, with zero bitterness despite the high cocoa content. The sachets contained “delicious chocolate nibs that carried through to the flavour of the drink”.
