Raise your chocolate ritual to new heights with the ALL-NEW VelvetiserⓇ

The ALL-NEW VelvetiserⓇ is here to transform everyday moments into a luxury experience — one cacao-rich sip at a time

You may already be a Velvetiser aficionado — aware of how our revolutionary hot chocolate maker can transform rich chocolate flakes into a heavenly, velvet-smooth consistency. Or perhaps you’re about to embark on your very first foray into indulgent bliss and are wondering where to start….

Either way, we’re here to introduce you to the ALL-NEW Velvetiser. That’s right, our treasured hot chocolate maker has had a glow-up. With the ALL-NEW Velvetiser, the cacao drinking experience is more seamless, more sumptuous, and more show-stopping than ever before.

With a refined design, enhanced performance, and that same barista-grade indulgence you adore, the Velvetiser ensures each and every sip provides a moment of bliss for all the senses. Oh, and did we mention this latest incarnation has a cold chocolate function?

The ALL-NEW Velvetiser

The ALL-NEW Velvetiser is paving the way for a new way to enjoy drinking chocolate. Retaining the ancient essence of cacao — revered by the Aztecs and Maya as the drink of the gods — it now arrives, reimagined in a form fit for the modern connoisseur.

While it’s beautifully modern, it still keeps that magical sense of ritual. The InnerPod ridges and custom-designed whisk create a vortex effect, allowing a moment of zen as you watch the milk and drinking chocolate flakes meld and fold into a deeply decadent concoction.

Intuitive design

Sleek, elegant, and made to bring a hint of sophistication to any kitchen counter, the ALL-NEW Velvetiser is available in three gorgeous colourways:

• Pebble
• Pewter
• Chalk

Beyond its aesthetic, this design also offers innovative functionality. Simply turn right for a perfectly warmed hot chocolate or left for a cool, velvety-smooth chilled serve. Because luxury needn’t be complex.

This thermodynamic programming allows you to select hot or cold drinking chocolate at the turn of a dial. It ensures the optimal temperatures for sumptuous cacao drinks, allowing the high-quality chocolate notes to shine through.

Our hot chocolate setting reaches 68-70℃, the optimal temperature for bringing cacao’s nuanced notes to the forefront. Meanwhile, the chilled setting gently pulses to ensure the chocolate is swept into the mixture, melding it into an unrivalled smooth consistency, complete with an oh-so lavish crema.

Creative ways to bring a touch of opulence to your day with the ALL-NEW Velvetiser®

Our ALL-NEW Velvetiser provides a sensory experience, from the blending of the ingredients to the slow pour and the first heavenly sip.

Now you’ve been introduced, let’s take a look at some of our finest drinking chocolate recipes. Some may lead to a comforting drinking experience, while others are a little more unexpected. But what does each idea have in common? Each one is designed to bring a moment of calm while appreciating the deep cacao notes and irresistibly creamy texture of your favourite drinking chocolate variety.

Chocolate indulgence — but make it cold

We’ve already spoken a little about the ALL-NEW Velvetiser’s chilled setting, but it certainly deserves a little more attention.

What better way to feel refreshed and revitalised than by slowly sipping an ice-cool glass of seriously smooth drinking chocolate? To get the best results, we recommend:

• Adding an optional healthy scoop of ice to your drinking glass as you prepare your chilled chocolate
  
• Using pre-chilled milk
  
• Savouring each sip (though it is tempting to guzzle it down)

To prepare a truly satisfying and cooling iced chocolate drink, you’ll need:

• The ALL-NEW Velvetiser
• A glass and ice (optional)
• 220ml of milk (either dairy or plant-based, depending on your preference)
• Your chosen drinking chocolate sachet

Here’s how to make it:

1. Pour 220ml of milk or dairy alternative into your Velvetiser, up to the max fill line.

2. Add your single-serve portion of finely milled real chocolate. Shake the sachet well before opening.

3. Turn the dial to the left and press to start. The Velvetiser will gently meld the chocolate with your chilled milk.

4. While it works its magic, fill your Podglass™ with ice (optional).

5. Once ready, pour the Velvetised chocolate over the ice in your Podglass™.

6. Sip, savour, and cool down.

Start the day with a chocolate oat bowl

Who says you can’t have chocolate for breakfast? Give your morning meal a cacao makeover by layering energy-packed oats with lashings of decadent drinking chocolate.

Here’s how:

1. Add 220ml of milk to your ALL-NEW Velvetiser (dairy or plant-based).
   
2. Sprinkle in the contents of your favourite single-serve hot chocolate sachet — we recommend our Milky 50% for a balanced flavour profile.
   
3. Turn the dial to the right and let your hot chocolate machine work its magic.
   
4. While it’s heating, stirring, and transforming your ingredients into a silky-smooth mixture, add a scoop of oats to a bowl.
   
5. Once the Velvetiser is ready, pour the contents over the oats, in place of milk.
   
6. Top with sliced banana, toasted nuts, or any other nibbles you fancy.
   
7. Savour each mouthful, appreciating the medley of flavours and textures.

Whip up a marvellous mocha for an afternoon pick-me-up

Say goodbye to the post-lunch slump. Combine lavish hot chocolate with the vibrant notes of coffee to create a delightful mocha, perfect for an afternoon pick-me-up.

All you need to do is brew up an espresso, using your favourite form of coffee.

Then prepare your chosen hot chocolate by adding 220ml of milk to your Velvetiser, along with a single-serve sachet. Pour in your espresso shot, turn the Velvetiser dial to the right, and watch the vortex-effect at work.

Once the mixture is ready, pour it into a cosy mug, inhale the gorgeous aroma, and take a sip.

Need a bit of flavour inspiration? Here are some of our favourite hot chocolate varieties to pair with coffee:

• Salted Caramel: Let the golden notes of caramel meld with the punchy coffee flavours, all tied together with a twist of salt.
  
• 45% Nutmilk: Our unbelievably vegan* 45% Nutmilk Hot Chocolate is remarkably creamy, delivering notes of praline that perfectly complement your espresso shot.

• Classic 70% Dark: For those who appreciate their chocolate on the darker side, our 70% cacao variety brings just the right balance for a mocha — it’s not too intense, and not too sweet.

*Please note: We believe our Nutmilk hot chocolate is suitable for vegans. However, as it is produced in the same environment as our milk chocolate, we cannot guarantee it is free from milk traces.

A velvety-smooth dessert

Have you ever indulged in the refreshing Italian dessert, affogato? Traditionally, this is a scoop of vanilla ice cream, drenched in coffee. Here’s our take — with a chocolate twist, of course.

1. Choose your hot chocolate flavour — we find our Orange Supermilk Hot Chocolate pairs beautifully with a classic vanilla ice cream scoop, bringing just the right amount of zest.
   
2. Prepare your hot chocolate using the Velvetiser. You can go hot (dialling right for a warm drink) or choose a chilled chocolate (by dialling to the left). Whichever you opt for, add 220ml of milk, and let the Velvetiser create its irresistible mixture.
   
3. Serve up a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream (although you can double the cacao and opt for chocolate ice cream if you prefer).
   
4. Gently drizzle your drinking chocolate over the scoop until it’s completely covered.
   
5. Top the dessert with a sprinkle of sea salt or a dash of orange zest for extra pizazz.
   
6. Grab a spoon and dig in.
