Hot Cocoa Pods, Milk Chocolate, Single Serve (Pack of 24) (Packaging May Vary)

Wonderful Hot Dark Chocolate! Love this recipe so much for the wonderful taste and enticing smell!

This is the best dark chocolate pod I know. Not too sweet, after having tested numerous others , absolutely too sugary

I searched these out and purchased these because they were dark chocolate and less sugar than most of the hot chocolate Keurig K cups out there. Previously, I purchased some very similar at Target, several times. Unfortunately, they were discontinued or no longer found to be in stock. They arrived very timely, and the package was intact / not damaged in any way. I like to add Four Sigma Mushroom blend to it, some freshly ground cacao nibs, and soy or rice milk to it for a healthy mood boosting beverage. I drink these almost daily! You definitely have to run your Keurig on rinse mode, just once, afterwards, or your next cup of coffee will taste weird. But, I think most people who have a Keurig or make hot chocolate from it are already aware of this. The only thing I would do differently or suggest is that they would make it out of organic chocolate. That's the only reason I dropped 1 star. Otherwise, pefecto! Will definitely purchase again in the future-- as long as the price stays reasonable and they remain available.

Good flavor at 8oz setting

I was impressed with the rich taste!

I HATE SUCRALOSE. Honestly, I don't know how other people CAN'T taste it when it's in sweetened products. It's got this unpleasant fake flavor that I just can't ignore. I think any company that uses that junk should be required by law to indicate it on their box and all advertising. That being said, it seems like this hot cocoa has less sucralose than the Cafe Escapes Hot Cocoa, and as such I have to give it higher marks than the competition. Still, I can't believe this product AND its nearest competitor use sucralose but don't say they're a diet, lite, low-sugar, or otherwise unnaturally-sweetened product. It's frustrating. I can taste the stuff, and I really dislike it. I also don't like the chemical makeup of sucralose, but I won't go into that here (just believe me: natural sugar is way better for you in the long run). There's one other choice out there for a hot cocoa in a K-Cup, and that's Swiss Miss. Unfortunately, the Swiss Miss K-Cups are ridiculously high priced and hard to find. My opinion? It's probably better if you just get your favorite hot cocoa in packets, and use the hot water function of your Keurig. It's not worth the K-Cup convenience if you have to put up with artificial sweeteners or significantly higher prices. Spending more than seventy-five cents per cup of water-based hot cocoa is about the limit for me. So, if you're into sucralose/Splenda, then by all means grab this and enjoy that weird aftertaste and decidedly not-sugar flavor. If you're like me, though, and can't stand that artificial stuff, then avoid this product and find another option. Three stars for tasting decent despite the awful artificial sweetener. Minus two stars for being artificially sweetened and not mentioning it anywhere. UPDATE: I just found out that the Swiss Miss K-Cups also use sucralose. So really, your only choice is to get packets and use your Keurig as a hot water dispenser. How disappointing. UPDATE 02/12: After some research, I found that there is one K-Cup hot cocoa that doesn't have sucralose; However, it is loaded with fructose instead (not the greatest trade-off, since it tastes different from sugar/sucrose, in my opinion) and has no actual sugar/sucrose in it. That one is Green Mountain Coffee Hot Cocoa. Unfortunately, reviews of it say it has a strong coconut flavor (probably because the second ingredient is coconut oil) and is on the salty side, so I have avoided it. It's also more expensive per-cup, and unless you think a single cup of cocoa is worth over a dollar and twenty-five cents (as opposed to a box of 12 packets being around two dollars) then go ahead and try it. I will refrain at this point and stick to using packets. I would also like to clarify again that despite what some comments say, the Cafe Escapes Hot Cocoa K-Cups, Swiss Miss Hot Cocoa K-Cups, and Grove Square Hot Cocoa K-Cups ALL use sucralose. Yes, there is sugar in some of those, but it is IN ADDITION TO sucralose/Splenda, and not by itself. So your choices right now are pure sucralose, sucralose plus a sugar, or pure fructose. None of them is appetizing to me, and all of them make the cost per cup of cocoa quite unpleasant. 43 servings of sugar-sweetened cocoa in a canister will run you around six bucks, and it's no more complicated than a K-Cup if you know how to operate a spoon.

I go through phases where I love a hot chocolate in the evening. These are by far the best kcup option I've found. Very rich and full flavored without being overly sweet. Just a lovely deep chocolate flavor. I add a bit of half and half for a slightly creamier taste after my mug is brewed. Try with confidence.

I recently had the pleasure of trying the Grove Square Hot Cocoa Pods in the milk chocolate flavor, which come in a pack of 24 single-serve pods. As a fan of hot chocolate, I was excited to see how these pods would compare to other hot cocoa options. The Grove Square Hot Cocoa Pods did not disappoint. The milk chocolate flavor is rich, creamy, and indulgent, providing a satisfying chocolatey taste with each sip. The convenience of the single-serve pods makes it easy to enjoy a delicious cup of hot cocoa without any mess or fuss, perfect for busy mornings or cozy evenings. I appreciated the smooth and velvety texture of the hot cocoa, which was complemented perfectly by the sweetness of the milk chocolate. The pods are compatible with most single-serve coffee makers, making it simple to prepare a steaming cup of hot cocoa in just minutes. The pack of 24 pods offers great value for the price, providing plenty of hot cocoa to enjoy over several weeks or to share with friends and family. The packaging may vary, but the quality and taste of the hot cocoa remains consistent and delightful. Overall, I highly recommend Grove Square Hot Cocoa Pods in milk chocolate flavor for anyone looking for a convenient and delicious hot chocolate option. Whether enjoyed on its own or topped with marshmallows or whipped cream, this hot cocoa is sure to warm your heart and satisfy your sweet tooth.
