Introducing Hotel Chocolat’s ALL-NEW Velvetiser® — The Ultimate Drinking Chocolate Maker - Hotel Chocolat

Chocolate lovers, this is the moment you’ve been waiting for. Hotel Chocolat’s ALL-NEW Velvetiser® has arrived, and it’s redefining what a hot chocolate maker can do. 

Crafted by our in-house chocolatiers and precision-engineered for unmatched performance, this next-generation drinking chocolate machine creates barista-quality results in minutes — hot or cold. 

 

Hot Chocolate, Cold Chocolate, Your Way 

Why settle for one style of drinking chocolate when you can have both? The new Velvetiser gives you the freedom to make luxurious hot chocolate recipes or refreshing cold chocolate drinks at the turn of a dial. 

  • Hot Mode: Melt our signature chocolate flakes at the ideal 154–158°F for a rich, velvety texture and full-bodied cacao flavor. 

  • Cold Mode: Blend our finely milled chocolate with chilled milk for a creamy, ice-free drink that’s as smooth as it is refreshing. 

 Perfectly portioned for your Velvetiser: 

Salted Caramel • Hazelnut Praline • Orange • Mint • Black Forest Gateau • Coconut White • Vanilla White • Classic 70% • Mellow 50% • Intense Dark 85% 

Crème Brûlée • Banana • Mandarin & Orange • Mint • Classic 

A curated box with both hot and cold flavors, so you’re ready for any mood. 

  • Hot Chocolate: Classic 70%, Milky 50%, Salted Caramel, Vanilla-White, and Black Forest Gateau. 

  • Cold Drinking Chocolate: Mint, Classic, Banana, Mandarin and Orange, and Crème Brûlée. 

 

Easy as Turn, Press, Pour 

The Velvetiser’s intuitive LED-lit dial makes crafting your drink simple: 

  • Turn right for hot chocolate. 

  • Turn left for cold chocolate. 

In hot mode, your Velvetiser gently stirs and heats to the perfect temperature for optimal flavor and texture. In cold mode, it uses a unique pulsing technique to blend chocolate and milk evenly — no clumps, no melting ice. 

 

The Vortex-Effect 

Inside the Velvetiser, a custom-designed whisk and InnerPod ridges work together to create a vortex-effect that folds milk and chocolate into a silky-smooth drink. Large bubbles are eliminated, leaving you with a luxuriously fine crema on top — the signature finish of the best hot chocolate you’ve ever tasted at home.
