If the cold weather has got you feeling a little blue, let us point you to a Hotel Chocolat velvetiser deal we’ve just spotted in the Black Friday sales.
Having flown off the shelves when it first launched in 2018, it remains just as popular now. Designed to provide those seeking an indulgent, creamy hot chocolate with the ultimate tool, it’s never been easier or more delicious to drink your favourite flavour of chocolate.
Thanks to a generous discount from Amazon, this velvetiser bundle can be secured with an impressive £23 saving. The appliance is available in matte grey, shiny copper and white, and it comes with 10 different flavoured hot chocolate sachets and two exclusive ceramic podcups. If you’re only in the market for the machine itself, that’s on offer, too, with 25 per cent off.
Owing to how popular it was during last year’s sale event (it sold out pretty quickly), we’d recommend beating the crowds if you’re dreaming of a rich hot chocolate during the winter months.

First things first: what exactly is a velvetiser? It is similar to a milk frother and works by simultaneously beating and whisking the milk and chocolate together, to create a silky-smooth mixture with a frothy top.
What we like about hot chocolate velvetisers like this one is they whisk everything so well, there’s none of the sticky powder mixture at the bottom of your mug, and the whole thing simply feels more opulent.
When reviewing the Hotel Chocolat velvetiser, our writer said: “It takes two and a half minutes to make a Willy Wonka-worthy hot chocolate”, adding that the finished result was “rich and frothy and felt really luxurious”. Surely the perfect antidote to this snowy spell?
Inside the discounted bundle, you’ll get two ceramic cups and 10 flavoured hot chocolate sachets, including salted caramel, hazelnut praline, orange, and dark chocolate. If you’re dreaming of a chocolatey Christmas, act fast before this deal disappears. Warning: house guests won’t want to leave once they hear the news of your velvetiser.

If it’s just the velvetiser on its own you’re after, you can currently get the hot chocolate maker for its cheapest ever price in Amazon’s Black Friday sale.
If you want to add on some chocolate flake sachets, those are on sale, too – there’s 24 per cent off salted caramel, 19 per cent off classic and 15 per cent off the milky flavour.
