Castle Kitchen Maple Flavored Dark Chocolate Premium Hot Cocoa Mix - Dairy-Free, Vegan, Plant Based, Gluten-Free, Non-GMO Project Verified, Kosher - Just Add Water - 14 oz

This is great cocoa! Love the hint of maple! I mix it with half oat milk and half water and it's perfect!

Oh I definitely will remember this one. I'm going to buy another. It's real easy to use. Add water, scoop in powder. Stir. The quality is excellent. You notice more of a maple flavor once it cools off.

We have only tried the dark chocolate flavor. We both like it and we tend to be picky with taste. Sometimes I do add more cocoa then suggested. That's the way it usually is with any brand though. Thanks for making a nice dairy free hot chocolate. I also add the Dandies vegan marshmallows..yummy 😋

Great flavor. Thick and creamywhen made with milk

I'm totally sold! Being lactose intolerant makes good hot cocoa hard to find. So glad I found this product. I was almost scared off by the concept of the maple flavor, but am so thankful I gave it a try. It is better than any dairy hot cocoa I have ever had. I no longer feel like I am missing out, but everyone that is still drinking dairy hot cocoa is totally missing out on this great product :)

The flavor on this is lovely! The dark chocolate plus the maple makes for a rich, deep flavor. This is the best dairy-free hot cocoa mix I have found so far, after many years of searching, and I am recommending it to my friends.

Just tastes like mildly flavored sugar water.

This makes delicious cocoa. I have tried the maple and dark chocolate varieties and both are great. It dissolves/mixes easily. It’s also great as a mocha with coffee.

There isn't much NOT to like about this product. It is priced fairly (compared to similar products for which you are paying chiefly for the sugar content), tastes great, dissolves quickly, has a nice fresh smell when you open the can. I like to add a teaspoonful to my coffee, to boost the taste...I love chocolate in ANYTHING! Sometimes I add a tablespoonful of maple chocolate mix to a half cup of boiling water, stir, and then add that mixture to a blender full of vanilla or a caramel icecream smoothie, for a boost in taste. I plan on buying more and hoarding it in anticipation of harder times, like a black out, or local store closures or other unforeseen disasters. Chocolate and maple have a unique way of calming the heart and soul in dark times. BUY IT.

I’m one of those people that sometimes after dinner wants a treat but I don’t want something that will tip the calorie scale in a huge way. This hot chocolate is smooth and creamy and hits the sweet craving spot everytime. I love to add a tbsp to my hot coffee. I’m ordering my second container and will be trying the other flavours as well, but this one was delicious and doesn’t have the added junk I try to avoid putting in my body.

Bon goût d’érable mais un peu sucré pour moi

I've been looking for a hot chocolate that doesn't make me gag for a while. The carnations and Swiss one is so artificially gross, I can't stomach it. The camino one is so bitter and flat that it tried to be too healthy. This one strikes a happy medium and actually tastes pretty good. I made it with hot water, no milk, and it was good like what a chocolate juice would taste like. The maple flavour is also subtle. I was concerned it would taste like caramel because I hate caramel, but there's that burnt oakiness that's maple. I made it exactly per the instructions too. I usually have to add 50% more liquid so it's not toothaching sweet. This one made to the instructions was alright. I'll probably add 10% more water.

This brand of hot chocolate is always a good one, so no matter what the hot chocolate tastes nice, but the maple is subtle to the point of being not really present. It tastes more like a very mild toffee or caramel? Which I'd rather just buy the actual caramel flavour they have as it has a better flavour. Saved it by adding Maple marshmallows I bought.
