HOT CHOCOLATE BOMBS

Hot chocolate bombs are all the rage right now. “But what are they?” We hear you mumble. In the most straightforward terms, a hot chocolate bomb is a solid chocolate sphere containing cocoa powder. Once you pop it in a mug of steamed milk, it’ll dissolve into a delicious batch of rich hot chocolate.

You can buy the bombs pre-made, but that isn’t necessary! Our range of products at Cake Craft Company includes silicone sphere moulds so that you can DIY this tremendous treat. Are you feeling creative? We’ve got every size mould you could dream up!

Here are a few reasons why hot chocolate bombs are our go-to treat this winter, and you need to hop on board.

Hot Chocolate Bombs Are Mess-Free!

No matter how steady your hand, hot chocolate powder from the tub manages to escape everywhere. Cocoa dust flies off every spoonful of powder you pop into your mug, and you know it! Having to wipe down your counters is no fun, not to mention that cocoa quickly gunks up your wet dishcloth. You’ll be thrilled to hear you can avoid all this hassle with a hot chocolate bomb. Since the powder is contained in solid chocolate until it melts in your mug, it can’t creep into any crevices in your kitchen.

Hot Chocolate Bombs Are Lots Of Fun.

We can’t deny that a standard mug of hot chocolate provides plenty of smiles. Whether you top it with squirty cream and marshmallows, or you favour a sprinkling of cinnamon, cocoa is a certified crowd-pleaser! However, you can make the experience even more exciting. Hot chocolate bombs are visually satisfying and fun to watch. Long gone are the yawn-inducing days of scooping cocoa out of the tin. Kids are guaranteed to be thoroughly amused with the interactive element of these treats.

Hot Chocolate Bombs Save You Time!

Hold up. There’s something we haven’t mentioned about hot chocolate bombs. They can also hold toppings! As well as cocoa powder, your solid sphere can contain marshmallows and sprinkles. You’ll get all the wonder of soft and squishy mallows without having to rummage through the cupboards! Topping stations can be a thing of the past, as you sip down a deluxe hot chocolate you achieved with one bomb. The only reasons you’ll have to lift your hand are adding whipped cream and holding your mug.

Hot Chocolate Bombs Are Exceptional Gifts.

Winter is the season of giving, with Christmas in the middle. Unwrapping a tin of hot chocolate powder with a bag of mini mallows from the supermarket would feel anticlimactic. Bombs have an element of excitement about them. Cocoa is a creamy, nostalgic treat treasured by loved ones of all ages, meaning hot chocolate bombs are an ideal stocking filler. You can make your own, and wrap them up to accompany bigger presents! If you’re feeling creative, you could even add different flavours of cocoa. Try orange.

Hot Chocolate Bombs Make Delicious Cocoa!

Not only are bombs ridiculously convenient, but they’re tasty too. You’ll have recognised that hot chocolate powder alone doesn’t always taste rich, creamy and authentic. Since your bombs are shaped with solid chocolate, your cup of cocoa will be thick and delicious. What’s more, you needn’t stand over the stove stirring a bar of dairy milk, melting it down to add to your drink. The bomb does all the hard graft and only requires that you appreciate the result.

Hot Chocolate Bombs Are Surprisingly Affordable.

Unlike the typical hot chocolate gift sets in a jar, bombs are reasonably priced! If you buy a set of moulds from our range at Cake Craft Company, you can make hundreds with the same equipment. All you’ll have to fund is the milk chocolate, the cocoa powder and any additional toppings! Talk about a sweet deal. Reusing silicone moulds to create delicious treats is better for the environment than buying chocolate supplies in disposable packaging. It’s a no brainer. Get shopping!
