Cue the Hot Chocolat Velvetiser the first at-home, hot chocolate maker.
Ever since its release in 2018, everyone had been obsessing about it as the must-have gadget.

That was until the day I finally tried the Velvetiser to see if it actually lived up to hype.
What is a Velvetiser?
This produces a smooth, “velvety” texture and rich taste in a matter of minutes.

Whats more, the Velvetiser can also create iced chocolate, iced lattes and even chocolate cocktails.
I chose the white color and it also comes with two white ceramic pod cups.
Dont be fooled by its size however, as this only holds 220ml for one small cup.

Still, its sufficient if you want to try other chocolate flavors from the brand.
These flakes come in sachets, and can be used with dairy, plant-based milks or even water.
As a “chocoholic,” I was already impressed!

Using the Velvetiser for the first time was a breeze.
verify you add the whisker inside first before pouring 220ml of your chosen milk up to the Max line.
Next, you pour your chocolate flakes into the Velvetiser, kill the lid and press the power button.
Unlike the noisy buzz of traditional milk frothers, the Velvetiser was super quiet, which was a delight.
Within 2 minutes, my smooth, creamy hot chocolate was ready.
But how did it taste?
However, there is a quick cleaning method that Hotel Chocolat recommends.
Simply fill cold water to the Max line, add two drops of dish soap and turn it on.
Even my son enjoyed using the Velvetiser, finding the whole process user-friendly and fun.
More importantly, the Velvetiser gave tasty results each time which is all that matters.
Plus, it looks much more stylish in my kitchen!
If you want smooth creamy hot chocolate, let The Velvetiser do all the hard work for you.
The set comes with two ceramic pod glasses, and choose from a range of four colors.
In the UK, the Velvetiser costs99.95 online.
It is also available in four stylish colors: white, copper, black and platinum.
