## Description

desertcart.com : Castle Kitchen Double Dutch Dark Chocolate Premium Hot Cocoa Mix - Dairy-Free, Vegan, Plant Based, Gluten-Free, Non-GMO Project Verified, Kosher - Just Add Water - 14 oz : Grocery & Gourmet Food

Review: 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.
Review: 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.

A: Container says to use 2oz. Out of the 16 oz in. Basic division, 8 total servings.

**Q: Why did you put maltodextrin in this?**
A: I don't know why. You would have to ask the manufacturer. You have asked Amazon, and I, a purchaser of said hot chocolate mix, have answered.  Lake Champlain brand has at least one variety without maltodextrin.

A: The label says it is made in Canada.

**Q: States its non gmo, but you use gmo products such as alki to process the chocolate?...going to asume its also noy vegan?**
A: Still vegan. The way of processing chocolate with alkali (probably 95% of all chocolate) doesn't use animal products.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This stuff is TRULY decadent!!
*by S***. on December 20, 2025*

This hot chocolate is amazing! I have lactose intolerance and cannot digest the milk in regular hot chocolate. This product is an amazing substitute! Just adding water, it's rich and decadent. You stir it into hot water and a rich foam forms on the top. Once you sip off the foam, the dark chocolate is below and looks like coffee. This product is absolutely delicious! I highly recommend this product, especially to those who are lactose intolerant and miss hot chocolate!
