Summary of 2026 Hot Chocolate drink details.
Bellbird Eatery
Bellbird French Kiss
A silky, velvety dark chocolate hot drink infused with a gentle bloom of cardamom, creating a warm, aromatic lift through every sip.
A caramel crème fraîche finger melts slowly into the cup, adding buttery depth, while freeze‑dried raspberries bring a bright, tangy spark that cuts through the richness.
A cup designed to evolve as you drink it.

Espresso High
Choc-Ini
The Choc-Ini is nutty without the nuts! Inspired by the nostalgic Filipino chocolate candy, Choc Nut. Black and white sesame/tahini brings the nutty flavour to our classic hot chocolate with your milk of choice
JoJo's Sweet Treats
Iced Chocky Cola
If you prefer your drinks ice cold rather than warm then this is the drink for you! We are creating a classic diner-style treat that combines fizzy cola with rich, creamy chocolate. Coke and milk??? Yep, it sounds weird, but it just works! The soda adds a malt-like flavor, and the chocolate milk gives memories of being a kid.
This classic beverage is made by blending cold cola, vanilla ice cream, a shot of chocolate syrup and a splash of milk for the ultimate thick, creamy, and bubbly consistency. Topped with whipped cream, a JoJo's Sweet Treats brand printed Marshmellow with edible ink and then our hero piece ... a chocky cola flavoured treat in the shape of a cola bottle. The hero piece actually inspired the creation of this yummy entry. The Chocolate Cola Bottles in our Pick and Mix are a 'made in NZ' treat. They are one of our best sellers which is a testament to the flavour combination w e have chosen for this year's entry into the "not hot" Hot Chocolate Challenge.
Mariana's Kitchen
Triple Glory Hot Chocolate
A rich, creamy hot chocolate topped with whipped cream and served with three chocolate bombs filled with dulce de leche & oats.
Each one celebrates Argentina’s three World Cup wins: 1978, 1986, 2022. Break them, drop them in, and enjoy the melt! A little moment of gloria in every cup!
Muffin Break Queensgate
Hot Chocolate Fish and Chips
Our "Hot Chocolate Fish and Chips"is a take on the kiwi classic "Fish and Chips"or "Fush and Chups"as some people say.
Our Hot Chocolate consists of creamy hot chocolate with lashings of whipped cream on top topped with mini chocolate fish and white chocolate chips. Any good fish and chips needs tomato sauce and this has been recreated using mixed berry sauce oozed over the top. We hope you have fun with our creation and enjoy.
