    Ohh lovely Hotel chocolat! i love their chocolates they are so nice, i bought a box around Christmas that also had peanut butter chocolates in (as well as other flavours) Glad you can now try them. Yes there is the hot chocolate velvetiser, but it is quite expensive! I bought the cherry bakewell flavoured Horlicks recently, i'm interested to see what you think of it, sadly i couldn't find the banoffee pie flavour though that sounds good.
