Ummmm...white chocolate is NOT real chocolate...., November 9, 2008
This review is from: Timothy's World Coffee, White Hot Chocolate, 22-Count K-Cups for Keurig Brewers (Pack of 2) (Grocery)
It cracks me up hearing people crying on here that the product "doesn't taste like hot chocolate". Well duh, that's because it's hot WHITE chocolate which isn't actual chocolate, it is the cocoa butter that is produced when cocoa is made, then it is sweetened and made into whatever. The result is a creamier, sweeter and smoother taste which is NOTHING like actual chocolate, so unless you are a fan of white chocolate and are expecting this to taste like real chocolate you ARE going to be disappointed. I am a a fan and love it and my K-cups, I have the platinum B-70 coffee maker so I can make a 6 ounce cup if I want it to be extra tasty or 8 ounce if I want it more mild. I would suggest giving it a quick stir as all the flavor can somtimes settle. It's delicious and for those of you who are giving this a bad review because it "doesn't taste like hot chocolate", it's not supposed to, stick to that gross Green Mountain Cocoa that tastes like choco-chalk water!

Not what I expected..., July 24, 2008
I was excited when these came out as I LOVE white chocolate! I ordered them immediately and was excited to get them. Unfortunately it didn't taste as good as I hoped. With the 8oz. brew (as recommended by the manufacturer) it tasted very watery and with the 6oz. brew (not recommended ~ by me!) it didn't brew the whole product and just clogged up. I brewed the 8oz. into a stronger cup of coffee and that didn't taste too bad, but I won't be buying this again.

Too sweet, yet too watery, November 7, 2008
This review is from: Timothy's World Coffee, White Hot Chocolate, 22-Count K-Cups for Keurig Brewers (Pack of 2) (Grocery)
I don't know how the product can be both too sweet and too watery, but it is! I bought these on a whim, thinking they would be good for guests and the occasional time I wanted something a little different. After trying them, I won't even offer these to a guest in my home.
Let me preface a little. I have the original Keurig, with only one cup size, which is about 7 ounces.
The consistency is watery. There is no richness, no creaminess. At the same time, the resultant brew is extremely sweet. It doesn't really taste like white chocolate, more like fake vanilla flavoring. The only way I can describe this is: non-fat milk, mixed with a LOT of hot water and sugar, with a touch vanilla.
I am normally a fan of the Timothy's products, but I definitely won't buy this again. I hate to waste anything, so I've started mixing one cup of this with a cup of Extra Bold coffee. That way, at least I'm saving some money on coffee creamer.
