Serendipity 3 Frrrozen Hot Chocolate Gift Box

I live in New York so I have had the liberty of actually visiting Serendipity--famously known for their desserts, ice cream, and frrroozen hot chocolate. Residents and tourists alike are willing to wait TWO HOURS just to sit-down and get their hands on this. I am NOT a 'dessert' guy nor do I care for a 'frrrozen hot chocolate', but I have to say this is delicious.

I purchased two of these gifts and they were received with much delight.

==PROS==
- consistent and tastes the same as if you were to go in-store
- easy to make and followable directions
- includes the actual cup they use so you can have a serendipity in the comfort of your house

==CONS==
- pricey but in the end--it's worth it.

I had heard about this product from Oprah and Racheal Ray...then I was reading about it in magazines, so I had to try it being the chocolate lover that I am. It took me awhile to order it because it's kind of spendy, but after I made it....IT WAS WELL WORTH IT!!! This is the best tasting chocolate drink I have ever had! The only reason I gave it 4 out of 5 stars was because it took a little longer than I thought to recieve it, but well worth the wait!

As I read reviews, I was extremely skeptical, as some people recieved damaged items in the mail. But, I decided to take a chance, and I am so glad I did. I was lucky to recieve my package very fast, and with everything in tact. The Frrrozen Hot Chocolate is absolutely delicious, and I love the packaging and extras. The goblet is very good quality, and the spoon/straws are great fun. Some people will say that it just tastes like chocolate milk, but I personally think it has a "foreign" taste. Bad or good reviews, I suggest to try it. I will definetly purchase more packets, despite the rather expensive cost.

If you were to imagine drinking hot chocolate in an ice storm, that might be close to the experience of smooth chocolaty bliss merging with ice crystals slipping through a straw and melting onto your tongue.

Ingredients: Sugar, non-fat dry milk, dextrose and cocoas processed with alkali. The blend of cocoa powders is especially rich and smooth.

This is a super fast dessert to make because all you do is put milk (even nonfat milk works) in a blender, add the packet of cocoa and then blend with a few cups of ice.

Within seconds of sharing this with my husband, we both knew we had been drinking this beverage too fast. Brain freeze! You can drink this much faster than a milkshake. You have been warned. It is tempting and delicious, but may need to be sipped more slowly...or not.

Optional toppings include whipped cream and of course chocolate shavings. Sipping this while wearing Opium perfume is a fun experience. It seems to enhance the experience and add new levels to the chocolate perfection. Oh I think I feel a sugar rush coming on...

My favorite way to drink this:

1. Turn on heating blanket when the weather turns cold.
2. Climb into bed wearing something silky.
3. Sip away while reading poetry.

So delicious!

Just absolutely heavenly. I had my doubts about it - I mean how good can this stuff be if it is just mixed with water and ice? But, it really is fantastic. . . and addictive.
