“I was so excited to try these beans but they have broken my Velvetiser!! Don't use them with any kind of hot chocolate/milk frother that has a whisk at the bottom. The beans jam it and disfigure the whisk so it won't work again :( I've contacted the Cocoa Canopy who just offered advice on how to do it in future... fine if I had a working Velvetiser!!!”
“I only bought the products as stated could be used in the velvetiser however they can’t as they are too big and don’t melt and also damaged the whisk in the machine. So very disappointed and won’t be buying again”
Hi Tracy, for the Velvetiser, It's best to add the milk first, then push the button to start warming it up before adding the beads! That will create the creamiest hot chocolate. Hope this will help :) Feel free to email hello@cocoacanopy.co.uk for any more questions. Cheers, Cocoa Canopy
“Bought the beads but they didn’t work in my velvetiser. They caused it to make a terrible noise that I thought it was going to break. When it finished all the chocolate sank to the bottom of the velvetiser and stuck”

“Had a sample of these for my wife as she is addicted to her Hotel Chocolat velveriser and thought we might try something different. Unfortunately found the hot chocolate to be very weak and more like a warm slightly chocolate flavoured milk. Sorry but not one really for her.”
“The chocolate is very good if you receive your order? Customer service is shocking, I’ve emailed 3 times and messaged on social media with no response.”
“Purchased a couple of boxes, one for a stocking filler and one for myself.
A week later, it still hadn't arrived so I went out of my way to go and buy the stocking filler at Waitrose, knowing it probably wouldn't arrive for Christmas at that point.
Appreciate it's out of Cocoa Canopy's hands once dispatched but no apology or response after I complained.”
“I ordered Christmas gifts from Cocoa Canopy, which have not arrived. They have not replied to two emails. No other way to contact them. Very disappointed.”
“This company is a complete scam. I ordered the trial pack which was advertised to contain three flavours. I recieved one flavour only in that pack. When I messaged about the error I was told it was only one order per household and they quoted me the terms and conditions whilst completely ignoring the fact that only one order was actually placed and that items were missing from that order.”
“I ordered the hot chocolate beads and so far they have yet to arrive. I’ve visited the website to see if I can track my order but it’s either not there or I’m just not seeing it”
