Save £20 on the Hotel Chocolat velvetiser
Looking for ways to create professional barista standard creamy and delicious hot chocolate at home? Hotel Chocolat has the solution.
Hotel Chocolat velvetiser hot chocolate machine: Was £109.95, now £89.98, Amazon.co.uk

When our tester got their hands on this particular model last year, it’s safe to say they were obsessed. “We loved the resulting hot chocolate from the velvetiser. It was rich and frothy and felt really luxurious.” They said. “The best bit could have been that it was an even combination throughout, without those little sticky powder bits at the bottom which you usually get. You definitely take things up a notch from your standard mix of milk and powder.”
