 My Kids think these other Reviewers are NUTS!!! June 23, 2008
My kids (Boy 13 & Girl 11) like Hot Chocolate / Hot Cocoa.
They have tried Powders / Syrups, Denny's, Starbucks, etc.
They both LOVE the Suchard Hot Chocolate.
My Son Straight Up, My Daughter with some Marshmallows.
I have also used it in coffee drinks. Aka Caffe Mocha.
Adding an Espresso works pretty good.
You can also hit the brew button to end the Brewing 1/2 way through and it will empty the Contents into the Mug, Then fill up the other 1/2 of the Mug with a Smaller Serve size Crema Coffee like the Mastro Lorenza Crema... Very Good stuff.
It will make a small mess on your pierce unit, so be sure to clean up after making one.
 Keep it around June 22, 2008

One of the great things about owning a Braun Tassimo TA 1400 Hot Beverage System is that you do not have to brew coffee that no one will drink. Likewise Tassimo has assorted teas available from Braun 01318 Tassimo Twinings Earl Grey Tea Pods, 16 Pack, to Gevalia 01317 Twinings Chai Tea Latte for Tassimo Coffee and Beverage Makers to Gevalia 1549 8 T-Discs Twining Green Tea for Tassimo Brewing System. But it offers only one hot chocolate-Suchard.
Fortunately it is a very good chocolate that will be sure to please your kids and even you during late night chocolate attacks. We don't use as much hot chocolate as we do coffee and tea, but it is one Tassimo product I always keep in my cupboard.
Suchard Hot Chocolate T Disc 1316 June 5, 2008
The mechanics of the disc work great in the Tassimo machine. But, it's too sweet and tastes a little fakey to me. Will not replace my hot chocolate discs when I run out. Frankly, instant powdered hot cocoa tasted better to me than this!
Will keep my tassimo, as I love it, but will stick with making regular coffee, hot tea, mochas from an espresso & milk disc and a few squirts of hersheys syrup.
Good as "Hot Chocolate" but mediocre "Hot Cocoa" June 1, 2008
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
West-coast Americans often use the terms "Hot Chocolate" and "Hot Cocoa" interchangeably, but technically (and legally) they are somewhat different products. Depending on the recipe Hot Chocolate tends to be a thin but strongly flavored drink, whereas Hot Cocoa is typically thicker but gently milk-chocolate flavored.
Suchard's imitates the darker flavor of old-world Hot Chocolate, rather than the popular flavor of Hot Cocoa.
So you might be justifiably disappointed if you're expecting flavor like Carnation or Swiss Miss (popular Hot Cocoa mixes). But you might be pleased if you want a darker, stronger flavor than your usual supermarket cocoa.
As Hot Chocolate goes, I found Suchard's very reminiscent of dark chocolates (like Hershey's "Special Dark") but overly sweet (again, like Hershey's "Special Dark"). It blends nicely with espresso, but it's a bit cloying on its own.
Compared to Hot Cocoa, Suchard's doesn't have the thick texture a Carnation-lover might expect. It doesn't taste milky or creamy, although there are milk ingredients.
Judged solely as a traditional Hot Chocolate, Suchard's T-Discs are very good but not quite excellent. But they're a poor substitute for Carnation or Swiss Miss if you prefer Hot Cocoa.
 Chemical Aftertaste! Blech.... April 3, 2008

I should have listened to the reviews on these hot chocolate pods,
they aren't very good at all. To me, they had a slight chemical aftertaste which was really strange! I'll definitely stick to the other t-discs, every other flavor I've tried so far has been great except this one!
