Sweet, chocolatey hot cocoa- perfect for a cold night, or to bring some Christmas spirit to the season. This is your classic hot cocoa- it’s milk chocolate, and the main ingredients are milk powder, cocoa powder, and sugar. This is on the sweet side- it’s not dark chocolate, and there’s no hint of bitterness. If you like a more intense chocolate flavor, you may want to go for something more expensive. This is your classic, add marshmallows, curl-up-in-front-of-the-fireplace, don’t-make-it-too-hot-for-the-kids kind of hot chocolate. It’s a real crowd pleaser, and is great for teens and kids that don’t like bitter hot cocoa varieties. This is a HUGE canister- like big enough for a church gathering, or enough to last a family for a cold month or two (maybe only one month in our family!). This hot cocoa was very fresh and delicious. The expiration date was about a year out from when I received it. The lid fits securely onto the container. Bonus: the canister is great for storage, once the hot chocolate runs out. It holds about a 5 lb bag of flour when empty.
