When the holiday season arrives, there is no greater comfort than a steaming hot chocolate in your hands. Dark or milk chocolate, with cream and maybe even a sprinkling of cocoa powder, hot chocolate is the drink that warms up cold December days in Milan, perfect for a sweet Christmas snack. It is undeniable that this drink is a great winter classic, but what happens when a great classic is taken to the next level, transforming it into a delicious gourmet experience?
What is Hot Fluff? The most viral hot chocolate of the moment
Hot Fluff is an even more delicious and visually appealing version of traditional hot chocolate. A generous portion of hot chocolate, rich and super chocolatey, is poured into a relatively large cup. The rim of the mug is then completely covered with a soft layer of freshly toasted marshmallow meringue. The golden, slightly caramelized surface adds aroma, texture, and a touch of pastry shop dessert. To make sure you don’t miss out on anything, we recommend adding a little whipped cream and maybe a few cookies.
Where to find Hot Fluff (and alternatives)
If you’re already eager to try it, in Milan you can taste Hot Fluff at Oslo Made in Heaven, where it is served with whipped cream and their special angel crunch, a crunchy garnish. Alternatively, you can go to Panfuwa, a Japanese chain that offers Floating Chocolate. Both versions are perfect for a sweet break, to share… or to keep all to yourself!
