Rich, smooth, and no "sludge"—The gold standard for dark chocolate lovers
The Flavor: If you’re tired of the thin, overly sugary taste of "cheap" grocery store packets, this is the upgrade you’ve been looking for. The flavor is incredibly rich and deeply chocolatey without being overpowering. You can tell it’s made with quality cocoa and fewer "filler" ingredients than the budget brands. My Preparation Hack: While the directions suggests water, I’ve found the absolute sweet spot: half 2% milk and half water. * The milk provides that essential creaminess and body. Consistency is Key: One of my biggest pet peeves with premium mixes is when they clump or leave a thick layer of un-dissolved "mud" at the bottom of the mug. This mix dissolves incredibly easily and consistently. Final Verdict: 5 Stars. It’s a decadent treat that actually feels like a gourmet cafe drink at home. It’s worth the extra couple of dollars to get a smooth, clean finish in every cup.

OK instant cocoa
This Coco was OK. Wasn’t my favorite, but the taste was good mixes easily a little bit more pricey than I would like.

Delicious Dairy-Free Option!
Pleasantly surprised by how good this is! I love hot chocolate but am bothered by dairy, so I’ve been searching for something that would allow me to enjoy without discomfort later. I will be buying this again! My husband - who has no dairy issues - went straight from drinking his Swiss Miss with whole milk to trying this and was even impressed by the taste! I’ve made this both with lactose free milk and oat milk and had good results with both. Haven’t tried with water because I like the creamier texture.

Doesn't deliver on flavor, too pricey
I don't plan to buy this again. The flavor doesn't nearly match up to the name: Double Dutch DARK Chocolate PREMIUM Hot Cocoa Mix. Didn't have a dark chocolate flavor, and it didn't seem "premium" enough to charge $14. Get some Hershey's Special Dark Cocoa and make your own. A little sugar, maybe a drop of vanilla, whatever milk you use, and voila. Drop in a candy cane or a cinnamon stick, or add some marshmallows if you like. But THIS was a double disappointment: The product AND the price.

A rich, delicious hot chocolate that is perfect for cold evenings
I picked up this Castle Kitchen premium dark hot chocolate mix, and it has been absolutely fantastic. It mixes up flawlessly just by adding water, which is incredibly convenient, yet it still tastes incredibly rich and creamy. It has a deep, decadent chocolate flavor without being overly sweet. It is exactly what Sheri and I need for warming up on a chilly Edmonton evening or what I want in a thermos before heading out on the road. Considering it is plant-based and dairy-free, the overall quality and taste are seriously impressive. If you are looking for a quick, high-quality dark hot chocolate, this is a highly recommended pickup.

Absolutely amazing product
I have a dairy and gluten allergy. As well as, I believe certain preservatives upset my stomach. Sometimes even gluten free and dairy free foods still hurt me. THIS product does not hurt my stomach in anyway and it tastes absolutely amazing with almond milk. I haven't tried it with oak milk yet but I'm sure it is still delicious. I am so happy that I get to enjoy hot chocolate again. It's been years!! I definitely recommend purchasing it.

Perfectly Dairy-free
The dark chocolatiness with the option to add whatever "milk" I want?? Yes please!! Lactose-free, smells and tastes like really good dark chocolate, and delicious with any non-dairy product. If the add-in has a little cream/fat, it will give a very pretty foamy top. It is a VERY dark chocolate flavour by itself. Family members will be getting one each this Christmas.

Nice texture but sweet
Nice texture—smooth and creamy. Despite the name “dark chocolate,” it’s not bitter at all and is actually quite sweet. Very enjoyable overall. I just wish it were available in a bigger size
