Got the Tesco ones too and don't rate them.

Tried without milk or sweetener - no good

Tried with just milk - better but still no good

Tried double bag with milk and sweetener - not overly impressed - think it was just the milk and sweetener I enjoyed.

Nothing ventured - nothing gained I guess :)

Sounds pretty comprehensive. Well done in the cause of research.

Can't beat a cup of cocoa, a real chocolate drink :hungry:
Cocoa & hot water, make a paste, add more hot water, stir like mad, add almond milk, add sweetener if required, add double cream. Is that OK?

I don't use milk at all, I make it with hot water and then add double cream at the end, and a bit of xylitol, lush!

Hi CollieBoy, yes those are one of the options. The chocolate orange ones are by charbrew but still sold at tescos, slightly more expensive.

Jemma, thanks for recommending, tried them and lovely...am sworn off chocolate until at least I get (hopefully better) first hab1c results after diagnosis, so these are a nice treat!!
