The doorbell rings. It’s a parcel. The kids run to the door. “Is it from Omie?” they yell, knowing that means chocolate. We are the branch of The Chocolate Box family tree that blew away. But since we left Melbourne my mum makes sure we don't forget the taste of home. She sends us delicious parcels to sweeten up our lives. We can't eat it all! Follow me as we unwrap our chocolate boxes share the sweetness with our friends.

RECIPE BLOG! Hot Chocolate
THREE NEW HOT CHOCOLATE RECIPES
Your last chance to make hot chocolate before the warmer weather finally Springs into action!
CLASSIC HOT CHOCOLATE
Stir 12 milk chocolate pastilles* into hot milk. Add marshmallows and sprinkle
with cocoa powder for decoration. (Chocolate and marshmallows are available from The Chocolate Box).
HOT CHOCOLATE SNOWSTORM!
For the adventurous! Stir 12 white chocolate pastilles* into hot milk. Add a splash of Baileys, or brandy liqueur.
CONTINENTAL HOT CHOCOLATE!
Stir 12 dark chocolate pastilles* into a mug of hot milk. Stir in 2 tablespoons of Grand Marnier or Cointreau liqueur. (As an alternative, you could also use The Chocolate Box's Cointreau chocolate sauce).
*For an equivalent of chocolate pastilles, you can also try breaking 2 pieces from your 50g chocolate block, or 4 pieces from the 100g chocolate blocks into your hot milk. It varies to taste.
Enjoy!
