Product Insights
Hot Chocolate is an instant cocoa‑based beverage powder produced by Nestlé, marketed primarily in South Africa and Europe. Classified in the beverages group, it carries a NOVA 4 label indicating ultra‑processing, and no Nutri‑Score is provided; per 100 g it delivers 432 kcal, 11.5 g fat (including 7 g saturated fat), 66.5 g sugars and 1.34 g salt, which are markedly higher than typical beverage averages. The blend supplies 10 g of protein and calcium from full‑cream milk powder, but it also contains milk allergens and a high sugar load, making it unsuitable for low‑sugar or dairy‑free diets.
