With nearly half the drink made of pure cocoa, Zuma 48% Cocoa Hot Chocolate is made for those who crave an intense hit on the dark side. It delivers a bold, full-bodied flavour that's rich and complex. But don't be fooled by its strength—this hot chocolate is perfectly balanced. Its smooth, velvety texture tempers the intensity, forming a comforting drink that's neither too sweet nor too heavy—just a sophisticated, satisfying hot chocolate with remarkable depth.
Rich and intense with a smooth, creamy mouthfeel, delivering deep chocolate sweetness balanced by warm malty undertones. Full-bodied texture from first sip to finish, with a smooth, subtle roasted depth. Its sweetness is soft and supportive, lifting the chocolate without overwhelming it. It pairs beautifully with caramel, oat and nut-based ingredients, offering enough character to hold its own whilst remaining versatile in layered serves.
Simple to prepare: add 28g (1 scoop) to your cup, mix with 30ml hot water until smooth, steam 250ml milk, pour in whilst stirring, dust with cocoa powder and serve. Approximately 35 servings per 1kg pouch—economical for high-volume café service.
Exceptional beyond the classic serve: craft a rich Mocha by combining with a double espresso and steamed milk. Create an indulgent Choco-Coconut Frappé by blending with coconut milk, liquid frappé base, whipped cream and a drizzle of Zuma dark sauce. Or make a Caramel Iced Chocolate by whisking with Zuma caramel sauce and pouring over ice and milk for a stunning layered serve.
