Tempting Cocoa In K-Cups
June 8, 2009
The Keurig brewers make coffee using K-Cups while Tassimo uses T-pods and the other brands use coffee pods. By far, the largest variety of coffee is vacuum packed in K-Cups. This, undoubtedly is just one of the many reasons why Keurig outsells all other brands. In addition to having the largest selection of coffee, K-Cups are also available with cocoa and quite a large number of teas. Well respected names like Celestial Seasonings, Twinings, and Bigelow have packaged many of their best selling teas in K-Cups. So you can enjoy coffee in the morning, tea in the afternoon, and a delicious cup of cocoa at bedtime – all made with your Keurig brewer.
Green Mountain Coffee has just introduced two new cocoa k cups. Great for indulging anytime, either of these two is bound to hit the spot and both are brimming with the smooth, creamy flavor of chocolate.
- Café Escapes Dark Chocolate Hot Cocoa is rich and decadently full of dark European chocolately flavor.
- Café Escapes Milk Chocolate Hot Cocoa is the newest cocoa from Green Mountain and it’s worth waiting for. This creamy, indulgent treat has a smooth flavor, luscious, and satisfying.
Green Mountain Cocoa was developed especially for use with the Keurig brewer and makes a great mocha coffee when mixed with a K-cup blend. In a review from www.singleservecoffee.com., the comment was “We liked the fact we can use our Keurig to whip up a cup of the cocoa from a K-Cup…”
There are other brands of cocoa now packaged in K-Cups and you’re sure to find some new favorites. Take a look at these chocolate treats:
- Timothy’s White Hot Chocolate has been a best-seller for years and www.schoffee.com says its “…a favorite of hot chocolate lovers everywhere. They make a rich, creamy steamy cup of white hot chocolate –not available anywhere else.” A coffee fan on www.qwowi.com/2008 tried Timothy’s and says “…it’s thick and creamy and full of white chocolate flavor when brewed at the 7.25 setting. I could not have been more pleasantly surprised by Timothy’s White Hot Chocolate…It’s one tasty cup of white chocolate – “deliciosity!”
- Bellaccino Gourmet Hot Cocoa has a deep rich flavor with the intense lingering chocolate experience so cherished by true cocoa lovers.
- Gloria Jean’s Hot Cocoa in a K-cup is a rich creamy blend, sure to satisfy so the hot chocolate lover has quite a few to choose from – and they are all delicious!
For Best Results In Making Cocoa With A K-Cup:
- Store the K-Cups at room temperature.
- Shake the K-Cup before brewing.
- Use the 7.25 or 8 ounce setting on your Keurig Brewer.
- First, run a hot water brew cycle – without a K-cup.
- Then, just pop a K-Cup in your Keurig Brewer and, in less than a minute, you have a delicious cup of steaming, hot cocoa.
Top your cup or mug with a dollop of thick, sweet whipped cream and a dash of cinnamon or mound on the yummy marshmallows. What a luscious treat to enjoy any time of the day or night!
