4.0 out of 5 stars
I don't know about "Dark", but it's very good,
By Timothy B. Riley (San Antonio, TX USA) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (TOP 10 REVIEWER) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Cafe Escapes Dark Chocolate Hot Cocoa K-Cups, K-Cups for Keurig Brewers, 16 pack (Kitchen)
One of the big advantages of owning a K-cup brewer is the ability to make a hot beverage for just one person and make whatever they want (as long as you have it). During the holidays hot cocoa is a favorite drink for the young people in my family as well as anyone wanting a hot and sweet drink. Since I got my Keurig I have experimented with several different hot cocoa K-cups. So far, the Green Mountain has been the preferred K-cup, especially by the adults (there are some sweeter ones out there that some of the children like better). When I saw this new Cafe Escapes Dark Chocolate I decided to give it a try.
The first thing that I noticed was that it is made by Green Mountain! A couple of interesting notes on the box: * You should shake the K-cup before using * They suggest using the 8 oz. cup size * They recommend that you run a hot water brew cycle (without a K-cup) after brewing the Cafe Escapes It did taste a little richer than the regular Green Mountain Hot Cocoa but I didn't get the Dark Chocolate taste that I was hoping for. I also like it better when I used the next smaller cup size on my Keurig B70 (about 5 1/2 oz.). It's not as good as the Ghirardelli packets made for the Keurig but it's more convenient. I like it better than the Gloria Jeans which tends to be a little sweeter and lighter on the chocolate taste. There is not getting around the fact that the best hot chocolate drink is the one that you make yourself with milk, cocoa and sugar, but this is still very good and I will buy it again.

Sugar and Sucralose,

This review is from: Cafe Escapes Dark Chocolate Hot Cocoa K-Cups, K-Cups for Keurig Brewers, 16 pack (Kitchen)
I bought this after reading high reviews in various places about how this is supposed to be one of the best hot cocoas. It does a better job of getting the flavor of cocoa out than others have but the improvements are ruined by the inclusion of sucralose. It provides that off putting after taste to the whole thing. If you don't mind the taste of sucralose/splenda then this is probably pretty good for you. I just really wish they'd just used sugar for the whole thing. Oh well, back to cocoa packets for now.

Sadly Disappointed,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Cafe Escapes Dark Chocolate Hot Cocoa K-Cups, K-Cups for Keurig Brewers, 16 pack (Kitchen)
I was extremely disappointed in this product. I was expecting the rich, hint of sweetness of quality dark chocolate. My senses were assaulted with a sickening sweet, unpleasant taste of sucralose with no detection of the richness of dark chocolate. If you are a lover of dark chocolate, this is not the product for you. The exorbitant price lulled me into thinking this would be made with quality chocolate and real ingredients. Alas..
