This statement was from the comments section on FB about the new products (written by VNF Choc):

The Hot Cocoa Mix does not have any coconut oil or any other oils for that matter. Sugar, Cocoa and Vanilla are the ingredients.

A little OT from original post, but I have te best recipe for hot chocolate.  Heat a cup of milk (or substite if milk allergic, but I cannot speak for how good that version would be).  Add a small handful of chocolate chips (I use guittard, the better quality chips, the better the hot chocolate).   Blend together with a handheld milk frother. OMG!  It is so good.  In fact, I think I will go make myself one right now.

HH, try adding just a pinch of salt or hot chili powder to that.  Or, a tiny pinch of espresso powder.  It really intensifies the chocolate.

As you all know, as far as I'm concerned chocolate can't be too intense, LOL.

Salt is ok.  I do add chili powder for a change every now and then. And I don't add espresso powder-- I put in a shot of espresso to make a mocha.

No, I think the point of VNF is to keep that heart beating -- and you on top of the ground and not six feet under. Lol.

I was in Shaw's today and they have Vermont Nut Free Chocolate available.  I found it in the Natural Food Section (the old set up)...in the other Shaw's where they removed that section, I did not see it, but wasn't looking very hard either.
