Equal ExchangeOrganic Dark Hot Chocolate, 12 Ounce

From hot cocoa, to my morning mocha, this is a kitchen staple in my home. I love that it not only tastes amazing, but the quality ingredients take it to the next level. First of all, I so enjoy scooping this out of the round container, rather than a plastic bag! Way less messy! The serving size is quite generous, and I’m able to only use half of what’s recommended, which then of course lets it last a bit longer. Even at half, it’s amazing how little the sugar content is for such a creamy, chocolaty product!

Good dark chocolate flavor

This is REALLY deep in chocolate flavor, even when using less chocolate than instructed. This is a good thing btw lol. A full cup was actually too much for me, so I refrigerated the rest. OMG it's so good cold. Thick and yummy. I dipped a banana into it and wow!

Tasted okay but not my favorite

Awesome hot chocolate! Great flavor, good price!

My husband loved chocolate and introduced me to dark chocolates which have antioxidants and as he was a food chemist told me the chocolate was actually good for you if you use the dark chocolate. When we were in his homeland in Australia near Nagamby which is north of Melbourne we were taken to a chocolate candy and hot chocolate shop in the middle of the outback. I ordered a hot chocolate that was spicy. When I asked the owners how spicy it was, they told me that it was as spicy as I wanted after it was served. I was to stir the chocolate a bit and take a taste and if I wanted it spicier to stir it more and it would get more spicy. And it did work that way. I was enchanted and tried to find it when I came home to the United States. On a subsequent trip when I visited the Chocolate Museum in Cologne, Germany, I purchased some Heilmann’s Chocolate that had chilies in it and decided to try it in my hot chocolate on the ship we were traveling on the Danube River. It was perfect if I put one or two tiny squares of the chili flavored chocolate in the hot chocolate that I made.When I came home I tried to find more Heilmann’s Chocolate only to eventually learn that they were not certified to sell their products in the United States. (As an aside, I tried another’s company’s chili infused chocolate in my hot chocolate but it had no effect at all-a surprise. Therefore, the search to find Heilmann’s.) But I finally did find this Equal Exchange Organic Spicy Hot Chocolate in a specialty shop. Though I’m not able to use it straight as it’s a bit too spicy by itself, I use the Dark Chocolate mix from Swiss Miss and put a heaping teaspoon of the spicy mix in the cup to make a wonderfully rich and spicy hot chocolate.It last very long if needed in the tin and retains its flavor. So purchasing three at a time is no problem. I love it.

I was looking for Cacao product to replace coffee. Not for me the first ingredient is Cane Sugar. Tastes good but as far as I can tell whats the point of sooo much sugar. Bought two cans had it two or three times in a Velvetiser and was excited, but I was suspicious due to its sugar taste as I thought it was mostly Cacao but its not. Hopefully they have a less sugar version. Thanks for reading.

My absolute satisfaction when I need a hot drink that not only helps me feel good but also tastes so good. I'm more delighted knowing the ingredients are organic. I have to add a little sugar to sweeten the strong cocoa taste.
