Where to buy hot chocolate bombs
THERE'S nothing better on a cold night than a mug of hot chocolate with all the trimmings.
If you've made your hot cocoa only to discover you've run out of mini marshmallows, hot chocolate bombs are the answer.
What is a hot chocolate bomb?
Hot chocolate bombs do not explode as their name suggests but melt away slowly to reveal mini marshmallows and other treats.
They're all you could possibly need for the yummiest hot chocolate of your life — in one little chocolate bubble.
The treat was popularized on TikTok but they're an excellent gift for Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, or any other celebration for loved ones with a sweet tooth.
Inside each little chocolate bomb, you will find hot chocolate powder and a variety of extras such as Belgian chocolate, wafers, caramel, and most commonly mini marshmallows.

It is best to stir the mixture before drinking or you might end up with powder gathering at the bottom of your mug.
