The new Deavas Hot Chocolate Drops are an even easier way to make a delicious cup of hot cocoa.

Instead of fussing with a packet of powder, the Deavas Hot Chocolate Drops are solid pieces of chocolate that dissolve into a warm cocoa drink when placed in a cup of steaming milk. The chocolate shell melts instantly to reveal the smooth gourmet ganache inside. And unlike other [hot chocolate bombs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/terrys-chocolate-orange-bombe), the Deavas Hot Chocolate Drops are made in Belgium with 100% pure Belgium chocolate, so you get an intense chocolate flavor in every sip. Best of all, Deavas uses chocolate that is Fair Trade Certified.

The new Deavas Hot Chocolate Drops can be found at [Costco](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dark-chocolate-coconut-cup) or on [Amazon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lindt-hot-chocolate).
