Guides / Round-up
A mix of hot chocolate and chocolates, for a cosy evening in or a sweet treat to share. The two hot chocolates both list vegan suitability, and only the Whittard set states a size: two 350g pouches. The Linen and Luxury Chocolates set adds hand-tied flowers to a 9-piece selection box.
Our own readings for each, then what the shops’ listings say. A gap means the listing doesn’t say, not that the product lacks it.
