Initially, I made the 'smooth milk' incorrectly by putting the beads into my milk frother; the beads didn't melt properly, but the end result tasted ok although a bit sweet and not chocolatey enough. Today I tried the 'salt caramel' beads, this time making it correctly by melting the beads in the mug covered with hot water from the kettle. The result was better this way, however, although it was less sweet than the 'smooth milk', it was still too sweet for my palate. I have yet to try the 'rich dark' flavour, but I'm sure it will be less sweet and more chocolatey so I'm looking forward to that. I know I will not be purchasing 'smooth milk' or 'salt caramel' anytime soon because of their sweetness. It is a shame that there are no sample sachets offered of the 'milk and dark' or the 'super dark'; I would gladly pay for sample sachets and any extra postage just so I could try them for taste as I wouldn't want to buy a full bag without trying it first. Perhaps that is something for the company to think about going forward?
