Cacao - St.Kilda

Cacao – St. Kilda

Signature Hot Chocolate

Well someone asked for a place in St. Kilda and I’ve finally found the time to get ‘round to it.

Served in a tall mug with an artistic design on top. The froth is smooth and light, with a sweet chocolaty taste. And the bottom part of it is unbelievably velvety, plus there is a perfect amount of it. The mixture is a soft light flavour with a strong emphasis on creamy milk. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing though, it was still very, very nice. It was consistent right to the end and had no choc shot, but could be just slightly hotter.

I think it may be a light flavour so that it accompanies the delicate chocolates that are at the counter. Also it was definitely filling.

Summary: A store based around chocolate, so you’d expect the Hot Chocolate to be of a high standard, and you’d be very, very right. Delicious!
