Are you looking to splurge on a little bit of kitchen luxury? Are you a fan of hot chocolate? Then you need Hotel Chocolat in your life.

But who is Hotel Chocolat and what do they have to offer? First, Hotel Chocolat is actually a British company that not only makes high quality chocolat products, but they are also cocoa growers. Not only that, but they might just have one of the best hot chocolate makers around.

Earlier this year we were introduced to the Hotel Chocolat Velvetiser Hot Chocolate Maker. This unique kitchen tool helps fans of hot chocolate make the perfect cup of cocoa every time. And thanks to their unique assortment of flavors, you will never be bored with a cup of their hot chocolate.

So what makes the Velvetiser so special? This small kitchen appliance actually heats and whips real cocoa bits with the milk of your choice for a perfectly creamy cup of hot chocolate every time.

Hotel Chocolat makes it easy to elevate your hot chocolate experience in the comfort of home

We have a Velvetiser of our own courtesy of Hotel Chocolat and we have definitely gotten a lot of use out of it as we have been trying different flavors of hot chocolate from the brand, while also testing out the use of different milks to figure out which we like best. We were shocked at how satisfying using oatmilk was with the Hotel Chocolat hot cocoa mixes, although we still have to try almond milk as well.

However, as someone who prefers 2% milk, I have to admit that this was my favorite option when it came to preparing a hot cocoa with Hotel Chocolat. And when it came to the best flavors, there is no denying that their Milky 50% Hot Chocolate Flakes, Chocolate Latte Mocha Flakes and Coconut White Hot Chocolate Flakes were my favorites hands down.

Honestly, if you love hot chocolate and are looking to not only elevate your holiday season, but all winter long, then you need Hotel Chocolat in your life. And while the Velvetiser Bundle will run you $150, it not only includes the machine, but also 10 packets of hot chocolate flakes to get you started (and as an added bonus there are also two mugs in the bundle that are perfect for sipping that hot chocolate out of).

We are loving our Velvetiser from Hotel Chocolat and their chocolate flakes have completely changed the way we look at hot chocolate.
