Hotel Chocolat Velvetiser Black Friday FAQs

Can you use Cadburys chocolate in the Hotel Chocolat Velvetiser?

According to research, Hotel Chocolat's velvetiser will not work with any other branded chocolate. The velvetiser has designed to only be compatible with Hotel Chocolat's hot chocolate sachets. Unfortunately, other brand's chocolate are likely to clog the Velvetiser's whisk and may even break the motor. Now that would be a disaster.

Can you put normal hot chocolate in a Velvetiser?

Following Hotel Chocolat's Velvetiser guidance, similarly other branded powdered hot chocolates should never be used in the velvetiser. This is because it can create the same 'hot spots', which can clog up the whisk and even damage the Velvetiser's teflon coating too.

Can the Velvetiser double up as milk frother?

While the Velvetiser wasn't made with milk frothing in mind, Hotel Chocolat have confirmed that you can use your Velvetiser to help you make a delicious, frothy coffee from the comfort of your own home. Pair with a shot or two of espresso, the Velvetiser will help you create a delicious latte or cappuccino effortlessly!

Is Hotel Chocolat worth the money?

In our opinion, yes absolutely. Hotel Chocolat are one of the only chocolate makers in the world to actually grow their own cocoa in a beautiful cacao farm in Saint Lucia, and are a brand that are helping to close that gap between cocoa-growing and luxury chocolate making and retailing. Creating smooth and rich chocolates since 1993, Hotel Chocolat are known for their variety of delicious chocolate, truffles, hot chocolates, and much more. They also always create wonderful Christmas chocolate gifts and sharing boxes that we promise you'll devour in no time over the festive period.
