Tesco Finest Belgian Hot Chocolate Flakes

 




Impressive looking, but when it comes down to it, it doesn't matter if the chocolate if solid, flaked or powdered, once dissolved it will taste the same. Over Christmas we all had a chocolate santa with marshmallows which we placed in a cup and poured hot milk over to dissolve. That was great fun. These flakes a little fiddly, and seem more of a gimmick than a practical or improved method of making hot chocolate. I followed instructions and used six teaspoons (generous ones at that, and with the spare flakes shown on the plate, tipped in and stirred, just for good measure), and yet at the end what we have is chocolate flavoured hot milk rather than proper hot chocolate. It's milky and rather sweet. This is  not proper hot chocolate. I won't be buying these again.
