Vittoria Drinking Chocolate at half price again, like 6 weeks ago.
The top of the can has small holes, so I use it as a chocolate shaker to prepare cappuccino at home.
375g / $2.40
cheaper than a block of 200g dark chocolate
plus i reckon will eat less / finish slower than chocolate block
That's a weird fact to pull out.
"I'll eat this pineapple much slower than if I were to drink it juiced."
Pro Tip:
Eat it with a fork. It’ll last even longer!
I have a tin of this and a tin of the Cadbury drinking chocolate at home and I must say I prefer the Cadbury by a long shot.
I find this too bitter to make a hot chocolate

Well, in Vittoria's defense, it is dark chocolate.
Perhaps the milk chocolate version might be more to your taste? Also currently half price:

16g sugars per serve …
EDIT: turns out this dark version no better either with 13.3 sugars

Don’t drink hot chocolate if you are concerned about the sugar content. That’s like complaining about the sugar content of a donut.
@ihavecentsnotsense: Doughnuts aren't meant to have a high sugar content, it's the fat that makes them unhealthy. Of course if you're icing them with sugar, the answer changes. A cinnamon doughnut lightly dusted doesn't have that much sugar on it.
Fresh doughnuts only need a little bit of toppings.
@ihavecentsnotsense: It was your only point.
I'm not debating, I'm just a doughnut enthusiast protecting my religion.
@StoneSin: I’m sorry your reading comprehension isn’t at a high school level. My point was that one shouldn’t indulge, by either drinking hot chocolate or eating a donut, and complain about the sugar levels of those treats.
@ihavecentsnotsense: They can. Doughnuts aren't exclusively LOADED with sugar. Can we restrict this context to Woolies products? Or are you just going to restrict yourself to personal attacks?
I had 5 doughnuts in the last 2 minutes.
@StoneSin: Sugar is a refined carbohydrate. Most of a doughnut without sugar is also refined carbohydrate. And you're barking up the wrong tree with fat.
Sure, the fat is a problem when the rest of the item is refined carbohydrate but it isn't fat that's the problem here it's refined carbohydrates.
@StoneSin: Chill out. You clearly don’t understand what I’m writing at all and I can’t make myself any clearer. I don’t care what you think about donuts; I used them as a random example to illustrate that if one is indulging in a treat then don’t complain about the sugar content. I could’ve said ice cream, cola or lollies. Get over it. And eat a (profanity) donut if you want to, I don’t care.
At least you live up to your name.
ice cream, cola or lollies
All three of these contain high sugar amounts, donuts do not.
@Lorindor: We have a lot of passionate donut defenders here, none of whom can understand that I’m not actually attacking donuts or their sugar content. Eat a donut, it might make you feel better.
@ihavecentsnotsense: If you think I'm anything but chill, you don't know post-5 doughnuts me.
You clearly don’t understand what I’m writing at all
Wrong.
@Lorindor: I never said I wasn’t wrong - I could be; sugar content varies wildly between donuts. But, as I’ve written ad nauseum, that wasn’t really my point. I could’ve used any other treat as an example.
@StoneSin: If you understood what I was saying you wouldn’t be having this conversation with me right now. You’d be euphoric in a post-donut binge haze.
@ihavecentsnotsense: The problem is that you don't understand. But you have cents, not sense so it's ok.
you like your sugars
Agree to disagree…
Cadbury is just icing sugar, IMO
This stuff is my favourite. Even then, custom mix to get the sugar cont way down…
1/3 this stuff
1/3 avalanche stevia drinking chocolate
1/3 cocoa
I use a combination of them in my mochas which suit my taste.
Couple teapsons of the Cadbury as most of it, then maybe 1/2-1 tsp shake of this dark choc, then after making the rest dust the top with regular Vittoria choc powder.
comes in dark chocolate also. I use this to make mochas at home on my espresso machine. On par with coffee shops
NICE
need, will buy tonight for my sat morning cuppa.
Does it have a lot of sugar in it??
Nice find
