Art of Delight

The hot chocolate here comes in an ooey gooey, thick sauce form. You can request for this to be turned into a drink or have it go on as topping on waffles or ice cream. Yum! Think two desserts in one! You can also order in a jar or two of this hot chocolate sauce and mix it up with some hot milk and add a swirl of whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon, and you are set! The Ashok Nagar Art Of Delight is open complying with all safety standards. You can enjoy your hot chocolate here on a chilly evening or order-in via Swiggy and Zomato.

L'inoui

At this chocolate cafe, the selection of hot chocolates available are purely made out of rich, thick molten chocolate with some flavour additions and nuts. Their Dark Chocolate is just that: pure, dark chocolate. Other combinations include dark chocolate with almonds (roasted and caramelised), cashews, and cranberries. Caramelised hazelnuts and almonds pair up with white chocolate to create other sinful, hot combinations. What's also interesting is something called the Hot Chocolate Dip -- bars of hot chocolate (yes!) that you can order in boxes of 4 or 8 to make your hot chocolate at home! L'inoui, Cunningham is temporarily closed but they a are delivering their divine hot chocolates through personal delivery (via their website) or Swiggy. Call them today to place your orders! 

San Churro Cafe

Their selection of Spanish hot chocolates has us salivating. Take your pick from Classic Spanish, Aztec (with chilli), Hot and Cold (with chocolate ice cream), Madrid Mocha (thick dark chocolate with espresso), and Mint Magnifico (with mint). There’s also whipped cream, marshmallows and churros to go as extras along with your hot chocolate. These hot chocolates can also be picked up curbside or as a takeaway through Dunzo or Swiggy Genie or ordered in through Zomato.

Starbucks

On a day when you don’t feel like guzzling endless cups of their caffeine, try the Signature Hot Chocolate at Starbucks, a combination of four kinds of cocoa and steamed milk, topped with whipped cream and sprinkled with chocolate powder. Starbucks also has a version with white chocolate and milk, and there’s also one for the little tykes with steamed milk infused with mocha-flavoured syrup, and topped with a swirl of sweetened whipped cream. Order-in this delightful concoction through Swiggy because they are delivering! You may or may not like the coffee, but dare we say, the hot chocolate is a must. 

Matteo Coffea

Rich cocoa stirred in with steamed milk, topped with dollops of whipped cream and finally garnished with chocolate shavings – this is what the Hot Cocoa at Matteo Coffea looks like. Plus, it tastes really thick, creamy and delicious too. Matteo is now open for takeaway and serves up their luscious hot chocolate. However, you will have to order the hot chocolate specifically through dunzo. 

Smoor

Smoor has five kinds of hot chocolate on their menu including sinful Classic Belgian versions with milk and dark chocolate. Other flavours included a spiced version and a hazelnut one, along with a rich Dark Chocolate Cafe version. They also recently introduced an ingenious way of enjoying this delicious beverage -- it's called, Stir It Up. Basically hot chocolate on a stick or in lollipop form, if you will. All you have to do is, like the name suggests, drop this stick in a cup of hot milk and stir it up to enjoy at home! Flavour such as Hot Chocolate Honey, Hot Chocolate Mocha and Hot Chocolate Mint is available. Order in your hot chocolate through their Stir Up Sticks on Swiggy or the Smoor website and cosy up.
