Gourmet Hot Cocoa Kit

This kit makes a cozy, crowd-pleasing gift for anyone who loves a sweet treat. Give it to a host, a coworker, or a friend who needs a cozy night in. Pair it with a pair of mugs or a bag of marshmallows for a gift that’s ready to share. Includes an Ultimate Hot Cocoa recipe card in the box.

Heat a cup of milk until it’s steaming, then whisk in about 1 tablespoon of Dutched cocoa and a spoonful of Vanilla Bean Sugar, adjusting the sweetness to taste. For salted caramel hot chocolate, stir in a pinch of Salted Caramel Spice. Follow the included recipe card for a full batch. Set out all three for a hot cocoa bar, with marshmallows, whipped cream, and a sprinkle of cinnamon for topping.

Great hot chocolate starts with great cocoa, and this kit gives you the ingredients to make a gourmet cup at home. Our Dutched cocoa powder is rich and smooth, with none of the additives or oils found in most packet mixes.

Vanilla Bean Sugar, made with real Madagascar vanilla beans, sweetens each cup with a creamy, classic flavor. Salted Caramel Spice adds a buttery, sweet-and-salty twist for anyone who likes their cocoa a little more indulgent.
