About this deal

Household Electricals Shop all Household Electricals Dry:Soon Heated Airers Heated Blankets & Mattress Protectors Irons & Clothes Steamers Air Purifiers Cons: It heats to a set temperature; reviewers frequently report that milk scorches onto the bottom of the gadget. The manufacturer recommends a whopping 54g of chocolate to make a single 350ml drink, and 84g of chocolate when making two cups totalling 550ml. This might require a bit of trial and error as those feel a bit on the high side to me.

It's an expense you'll need to factor in as other brands of chocolate flakes can clog the Velvetiser’s whisk and may even break the motor – so it’s a definite no-no! All in all, this is a hot drink delight that’s perfect for serious hot chocolate fans or anyone looking to add a touch of cosy finesse to a winter dinner party. In the market for a Christmas present for a loved one? The Velvetiser would be at the very top of our list for sweet tooths. Anyone for a hot cocoa? Yes! In fact, it's compatible with all milk alternatives, including almond, soy and coconut. No milk in the fridge? Plot twist: the machine can also be used milk-free. Just use 220ml of water with your hot chocolate sachet instead. Can I put it in the dishwasher? Versatility: ★★☆☆☆. This machine only makes hot chocolate (and only one cup at a time), and it can only handle chocolate flakes (ideally Hotel Chocolat's own).

Hotel Chocolat Velvetiser

When it comes to looks, little beats the offerings from Hotel Chocolat and Nespresso. These are beautiful kitchen appliances that you'll want to show off. Glamour: ★★★☆☆. I'm not a fan of the red colour but it does sit perfectly next to other products in the Gourmet Gadgetry Retro Diner range. Value for money: Looking at the price point and quality of results, we evaluated whether the milk frother felt like a good investment. Pros: Less washing up as you make it in the cup you drink from; Less labour-intensive than a saucepan as you don't need to constantly stir as the milk heats up.

The key to perfectly frothed milk is fat. That's why cafés and coffee shops use whole milk to make coffees as standard.

What is the difference between a Velvetiser and milk frother?

All you need in addition to the liquid (water or any type of milk) chocolate of your choice is a means to heat the liquid up (a kettle for water or a saucepan/microwave for the milk). Editor’s note:“If you're looking for an easy to use milk frother for your hot chocolate, this is it. The Dualit Handheld Milk Frother has one-touch technology to froth milk for smooth hot chocolate (cappuccinos, flat whites or lattes) which will taste just as good - if not better - than the pros. All you have to do is fill up your frother with milk and add your ingredient of choice, land then press the button. The jug, lid, whisk, and spoon are all dishwasher safe so clean-up is a doddle. Drinks take up to 4 minutes to make depending on the recipe, but bear in mind the gadget can only produce one cup at a time.
