Delicious Hot Cocoa Mix
I have tried all different brands of hot chocolate mixes. This one is the best. It is truly delicious. Just heat up some milk and mix in teaspoons of the cocoa powder. Ghiradelli is world reknown for its chocolates. Did you know that "Theobroma Cacao" was once the drink of the gods among the ancient Mayans and Aztecs? Only their kings were important enough to drink it. Nowadays, you don't have to a god or king to enjoy it. So go ahead and treat yourself. It's worth the money.

Good chocolate
This hot chocolate was very good and the family really enjoyed it. I would recommend it to chocolate lovers. Service and shipping were good and on time.

Your own mocha and it won't cost you $5 per cup
Here you have an excellent tasting product that isn't THAT bad for you - even the carb-conscious folks. One serving has 28g of sugars and 2g of fiber - yes, fiber even. That's 4 tablespoons. I, personally, only need 2 so cut that in half, which is the same sugars as a light yogurt.
Anyway, on to the best part. If you are like me and have grown addicted to the sweet tasting mochas from any of the number of specialty coffee places out there (Tully's, Peet's, Starbucks, etc.), but you hate paying $4-$5 for your fix, check this out.
Buy your favorite coffee (I like Peet's house blend myself) and brew your regular coffee. Yes, you don't need a $1,000 espresso machine to do this. Add 2-4 tablespoons of "Ghirardelli Hot Chocolate Mix , Chocolate Mocha" to a large, dry cup (I use 2), pour in your hot coffee. Mix thoroughly. Now, add your favorite creamer (I like Mocha Mix light or nonfat lactose free milk). Stir. And, you have yourself a darn good mocha w/out the espresso machine hassle or the cost.
Now, throw it in your favorite spill-free travel coffee cup and head off to work bypassing the unsuspecting grumpies standing in line for 10-minutes waiting to pay $5 for their chocolaty caffeinated beverage. Just smile knowing now you have an extra $100+ per month for something else.
Excuse me whilst I take another sip of mine.
