That is surprising.
well it sells well enough without so i was really surprised
They usually do a fancy box of choccies for Christmas but they've been pricey in the past. Keep an eye out on the foodie shows.

Sounds like your a Chocoholic tooI bought one from Hotel Chocolat last year, they had a good deal on. Salted Caramel are my favourite flavour, I have mine with a teaspoon of coffee in and makes a delicious Mocha. For anyone who’s interested they do a subscription were you can get boxes of chocolate for the Velvetiser delivered from Hotel Chocolat each month free delivery, as little or as many as you want, a cheaper alternative is a flake crumbled in........ooooh yummy

Oh dear! A bit off putting! It does look lovely though (I’m soooo shallow)Even though the majority of reviews for this product are glowing - I just couldn't envisage myself spending that sort of money in the name of hot chocolate..and I love it! OH is an even bigger fan, he buys really good quality chocolate and makes it up in a saucepan, and then uses an small handheld aeriator thingy and indeed it's velvety and delicious..I sometimes have to wipe the kitchen tiles down after when he's been a bit gung-ho with it. I was actually toying with the idea of getting him one of these for xmas, as it's a high enough price to serve as a main present, but I was actually put off by some of the few less than glowing reviews that mentioned how it only makes one cup at a time, refills are expensive, and that if you did use your own chocolate it needs to be grated finely (big faff) and the drinks are lukewarm. It's another thing to block up the cupboards or clutter the worksurface so it's a no from me. There's no going back because I've bought him something else for xmas now anyway. I think if I want a barista hot chocolate for a treat I'll go out and have one - or get OH to make one for me - and I can't think that this machine could make it any better than he does!
I bought a selection box tsv a few years ago and even with the p+p it was good value and a very varied mix. If anyone is interested channel 5 have a programme about hotel chocolate on Sunday night.there is another in early november so thats when i think that one will be
