MISSION

With decades of combined experience in the speciality coffee industry, the team have brought their knowledge and expertise to create a selection of the finest hot chocolate blends that rise to the expectation of today’s premium speciality coffees. We think that hot chocolate should be no less exciting and complex as the amazing coffees out there. With the same approach to traceability, ethics and sophistication, Smält is here to prove that hot chocolate should be exciting, and not just a mediocre item on the coffee shop menu.

APPROACH

We hand craft our blends using only single origin cocoa liquor, single origin organic cocoa powder and the finest organic unrefined coconut blossom sugar. By selecting only the purest natural ingredients means that the origin’s flavours are on center stage. It also means that we know exactly where the ingredients are coming from, thus ensuring we understand every step of the journey.

METHOD

We finely grate pure single origin cocoa liquor, combine with single origin organic cocoa powder and blend with organic coconut blossom sugar in our custom designed and made in Cornwall chocolate spinning machine.

HOW TO MAKE

Start with a heaped tablespoon of Smält (around 20 grams) and 250ml milk or water. Warm the liquid just before boiling temperature. Whisk the chocolate with 1/4 of the warm liquid in a jug to form a paste. Then add the rest and whisk to form a smooth and thick hot chocolate.
