Single serve chocolate drink

This autumn sees the launch of the perfect stocking filler for Christmas – Hans Sloane’s handmade single serve Christmas Bauble and Cocoa Pod, each filled with chocolate beads, which are shaken before popping the bauble/pod into a cup and adding hot milk or water.

Sir Hans Sloane was a chocolate pioneer. In the late 17th century, after tasting drinking chocolate in Jamaica, he came up with the idea of combining it with milk to make it more palatable. He brought his recipe back to England, initially as a medicine, but it soon became the way people consumed hot chocolate in Europe.

Available in 270g packs, Hans Sloane Drinking Chocolate comes in five varieties, including the Great Taste Award-winning Smooth Milk, Rich Dark, Madagascar 67% and Ecuador 70%, as well as the unique Natural Honey; 1kg catering packs for baristas and cafes are also available in Smooth Milk and Rich Dark.
