this is the easiest way to create a smooth, super rich, velvety and fast hot chocolate. No need to overheat your milk (or plant-based alternative). No need to stir like a fool.
Ratio between ground chocolate and milk or plant-based alternative is of course to your taste, time of day ;-) and the intensity of our (single origin) ground chocolate.
Everything between 1:5 - 1:8 deliveries a tasty result. From rich & lush to light touched. We like to go for a 1 to 6 ratio for a good balanced intense hot chocolate.
. chocolate 25g ground chocolate

______________________________________________________________________
. heat your milk or plant-based option they way you prefer (stovetop, microwave,... )
. add your ground chocolate to your cup, mug or glass
. once heated to about 65-70°C, add your milk or plant-based option to the ground chocolate
. start the frother, aerate the milk and create a swirl / vortex in your cup to optimize solubility
. you can add some ground chocolate on top or serve with one of our large chocolate buttons for snacking ;-)
