Customer Review: Gevalia Suchard Hot Chocolate t disc
Summary: 4 Stars
Gevalia Suchard Hot Chocolate T-Disc 1316
Great for quick hot chocolate in my tassimo. I like it alot more with a little readi whip. Not the best hot chocolate I've had but good.
Customer Review: Good as "Hot Chocolate" but mediocre "Hot Cocoa"
Summary: 4 Stars
West-coast Americans often use the terms "Hot Chocolate" and "Hot Cocoa" interchangeably, but technically (and legally) they are somewhat different products. Depending on the recipe Hot Chocolate tends to be a thin but strongly flavored drink, whereas Hot Cocoa is typically thicker but gently milk-chocolate flavored.
Suchard's imitates the darker flavor of old-world Hot Chocolate, rather than the popular flavor of Hot Cocoa.
So you might be justifiably disappointed if you're expecting flavor like Carnation or Swiss Miss (popular Hot Cocoa mixes). But you might be pleased if you want a darker, stronger flavor than your usual supermarket cocoa.
As Hot Chocolate goes, I found Suchard's very reminiscent of dark chocolates (like Hershey's "Special Dark") but overly sweet (again, like Hershey's "Special Dark"). It blends nicely with espresso, but it's a bit cloying on its own.
Compared to Hot Cocoa, Suchard's doesn't have the thick texture a Carnation-lover might expect. It doesn't taste milky or creamy, although there are milk ingredients.
Judged solely as a traditional Hot Chocolate, Suchard's T-Discs are very good but not quite excellent. But they're a poor substitute for Carnation or Swiss Miss if you prefer Hot Cocoa.
Customer Review: Great Hot Chocolate
Summary: 5 Stars
The key to this hot chocolate is to stir it after you have made it and to add whipped cream! If you stir the drink and add whipped cream the flavor is very European and very good. The first time I drank it I did not stir it and found the drink to be very watery. Try stirring and everything will get better.Customer Review: Great hot chocolate!

My kids love this and I do too. My son, who is a chocoholic, describes this as a "liquid Hershey bar!". He likes it with marshmallows. We are not big fans of the powdered hot cocoa.Customer Review: Great taste
