 Dark and Rich, but Drink a Small CupJan 12, 2009
By Diana F. Von Behren

There's a little place on Magazine Street in New Orleans that serves real Italian hot chocolate -- yum! it's thick, dark and just sweet enough to satisfy and replicate the European hot chocolate experience. Happily, California company "In Tempe Ran Tia" makes this treat readily available. Creating a reasonable facsimile with a medium price point, this mix boasts of intense dark chocolate flavor that is easy to prepare and even easier to drink.
'
Caveat: The only problem I had was I drank way too much -- a large 'Venti' sized cup that did not work well with my system the next day. "In Tempe Ran Tia" recommends a small 4 ounce cup which is about the size of a service in Europe. So do comply with their recommended dosage.
I had a bit of trouble finding the instructions for this mix - its hidden--printed in the box lid. Follow carefully -- the mix contains arrowroot which allows the mixture to thicken after it has been properly blended. For those who do not like sugar, this mix is sugar free--so sweetness can be adjusted to taste.
The packaging is attractive --lovely violet ribbon and silk miniature sunflower adorns an orange/yellow reptile print box. Nice!
Bottom line? Recommended for those who love dark hot chocolate, European style.

So good!!!Apr 18, 2010
By A. MILL
Exactly what I was looking for. Thick hot chocolate like in Italy (or almost) and I like the fact that there is not sugar added so you can really add the exact amount of sugar you like.
 Not so good productDec 26, 2011
By Michele Whiteaker

Not so good product - i do not like and won't buy it again.
my taste bud goes for a very good and certainly not bitter chocolate for making a hot gourmet chocolate beverage.
not again that's for sure
