A fine chocolate for mixing coffee beverages
I'm afraid that many of the negative reviews about this product rather miss the point. They even state on the Tassimo website that these discs are best used with the addition of marshmallows or milk, but even without this information, most people would be able to figure it out for themselves.
The Suchard disc contains chocolate syrup. It has no milk, no...

Hot Chocolate not Hot Cocoa
Many people drink this expecting the Swiss Miss hot cocoa. This is hot chocolate. There is a difference. If you are expecting sweet, creamy this is not for you. I will say there needs to be a more intense dark chocolate taste.

A fine chocolate for mixing coffee beverages, February 20, 2008
I'm afraid that many of the negative reviews about this product rather miss the point. They even state on the Tassimo website that these discs are best used with the addition of marshmallows or milk, but even without this information, most people would be able to figure it out for themselves.
The Suchard disc contains chocolate syrup. It has no milk, no cream, and no non-dairy creamer. When most people think of "hot chocolate," they think of a drink that's made with milk, no? Just like a latte or a cappucino requires the addition of milk. Yet for some reason the same people who think nothing of adding milk to make a cappucino can't figure out that they need to do the same to make hot chocolate. Baffling.
Use of the Suchard disc without the addition of milk or cream (either the Tassimo milk discs or regular milk) will have the same result as diluting Hershey's syrup with water. Expecting it to taste anything like Swiss Miss or similar packaged cocoas containing powdered milk is unrealistic and unfair. This product is even better used with powdered milk or non-dairy creamer, as it has a richer flavor due to less dilution that way.

It Is What You Make Of It!, January 23, 2009
This review is from: SUCHARD Hot Chocolate T-Disks for Tassimo Hot Beverage System
OK..I received this as my freebie from Tassimo for registering my new Bosh Tassimo TAS10 machine...Here's the deal...the discs are filed with chocolate SYRUP..Your machine pumps hot WATER through the syrup so OF COURSE you are NOT going to get the creamy hot chocolate that you are used to getting from the packets or made on the stove. What I did was use a "skinny" (non-fat) milk disc FIRST...then I put in the hot chocolate syrup after the hot milk was pumped through into my cup. The finished product was a perfectly blended hot chcolate made with non-fat milk (the non-fat disc from the Gevalia Skinny Cappuccinos). You can do it my way or simply add your own milk or half & half of your choice! The point is...if you just use the syrup disc you are only going to get watery chocolate syrup! Anyway, the chocolate is tasty, would make an excellent cafe mocha and I will purchase more when I eventually run out. I took away a star only because I think they should include milk discs with it so it wouldn't be so confusing!

Great Hot Chocolate, December 30, 2008
This review is from: SUCHARD Hot Chocolate T-Disks for Tassimo Hot Beverage System
The key to this hot chocolate is to stir it after you have made it and to add whipped cream! If you stir the drink and add whipped cream the flavor is very European and very good. The first time I drank it I did not stir it and found the drink to be very watery. Try stirring and everything will get better.

Tassico Suchard Hote Chocolate, January 16, 2009
This review is from: SUCHARD Hot Chocolate T-Disks for Tassimo Hot Beverage System
This is a nice hot chocolate but dont forget to add the milk. I love the Tassimo machine but they only offer this one hot chocolate which is dissapointing. Although they do offer Milka Hot Chocolate in Europe for this machine and it is wonderful and i wish they offered it in the US also. I will be glad when they also offer a low fat version of hot chocolate and to enable this to happen go onto the Tassimo Web site and put in a request because the more requests they receive then they may just add this to there collection.

Pretty Good For Hot Chocolate From A Single-Serve Machine, December 28, 2008
This review is from: SUCHARD Hot Chocolate T-Disks for Tassimo Hot Beverage System
If you want excellent hot chocolate, you still need to make it yourself and use milk and high-quality chocolate. We've tried the Keurig with various single serve hot chocolate k-cups and the Bosch TAS4511UC Tassimo Single-Serve Coffee Brewer, Silk Silver with the Gevalia Suchard T-Discs. The Tassimo version yields the best cup of chocolate.
Rather than using a chocolate powder like the Keurig version, the T-Disc uses syrup. It yields a richer, more satisfying cup. It is a bit sweet, but I like it. The main problem with the product is that it does not completely disperse in your cup. There is a fair amount of syrup at the bottom of your cup. You'll need to stir a few times to get all the syrup dissolved.
Overall, I recommend this product. In the future, I'd like to see several different versions released that are less sweet and maybe a version that combines a milk T-Disc to produce the beverage. Although not currently carried in the United States, I've been hearing good reviews of a Tassimo product using "Milka" chocolate from Germany which comes packaged with the shelf-stable milk to produce the hot chocolate.

Great-but requires goodies like Coffee, January 16, 2007
This is good hot chocolate in general-but is different tasting that u will expect compared to hershey's or swiss miss. So like coffee u may have to add a dash of something else, like a dollop of cream or marshmallow or touch of milk.

Great hot chocolate!, September 14, 2009
This review is from: SUCHARD Hot Chocolate T-Disks for Tassimo Hot Beverage System
My kids love this and I do too. My son, who is a chocoholic, describes this as a "liquid Hershey bar!". He likes it with marshmallows. We are not big fans of the powdered hot cocoa.

Yummy-just add some milk or cream!, February 25, 2009
This review is from: SUCHARD Hot Chocolate T-Disks for Tassimo Hot Beverage System
These discs contain a rich tasting chocolate syrup. Add a little milk or cream to your cup, pop this in the Tassimo and you will have a really quick cup of GOOD hot choclate. My kids love it!

Tassimo Hot Chocolate...yummy!, February 24, 2009
This review is from: SUCHARD Hot Chocolate T-Disks for Tassimo Hot Beverage System
I'm happy with the hot chocolate t-discs purchased for my Tassimo machine. Be sure to mix the drink once it's been made. I didn't do that the first time and the drink was not good. The second time it was just right though.
