Revamped Hotel Chocolat Velvetiser now boasts a spectacular new feature, enhancing your delightful hot chocolate experience.
Introducing the New Hotel Chocolat Velvetiser: A Revolution in Chocolate Drink Making
Get ready, chocolate lovers! The highly anticipated new Velvetiser from Hotel Chocolat is set to launch in September 2022, promising a significant upgrade from the original model.
The new Velvetiser boasts several key improvements and design changes, setting a new standard for chocolate drink making at home.
Cold Chocolate Drinks Without Heat
Perhaps the most exciting new feature is the ability to make cold chocolate drinks without using heat. While the original Velvetiser could create cold drinks by mixing with ice or cold milk, the new model comes with a dedicated cold-setting function [1].
Inspired by Nature
The new machine’s exterior draws design inspiration from a cacao pod, featuring elegant ridges and a wooden handle. This gives the new Velvetiser a more refined and nature-inspired look compared to the original [1].
Innovative Internal Whisk Design
Inside, there is a custom-designed whisk inspired by the cacao flower. This whisk works with ridges inside the machine to create a vortex and incorporate ultra-fine air passages. This design enhancement aims to produce a silkier, creamier hot chocolate with a crema on top [1].
Integrated Hot/Cold Dial
The new Velvetiser sits on a base that includes a dial to switch between hot and cold drink modes, simplifying operation and expanding versatility [1].
In-House Development
Unlike the original Velvetiser, which was developed by Dualit for Hotel Chocolat, the new version was developed internally by Hotel Chocolat over two years, allowing more control over design and function [1].
A Versatile and Aesthetically Elevated Experience
The new Velvetiser includes a bundle with a Podcup, Podglass, and a selection of hot and cold drinking chocolates. It is available in three colours: pewter, pebble, and chalk. The new Velvetiser will cost £149.95 [1].
