Swiss Miss, Hot Cocoa Mix, 1.38 oz, 50-Count

This hot cocoa mix is made with sugar as the primary ingredient, providing the familiar sweetness associated with classic hot chocolate. Corn syrup solids are included to help create a smooth, consistent texture when mixed with hot water or milk. The chocolate flavor comes from cocoa, processed with alkali to deliver a richer, more mellow taste. Whey and nonfat milk contribute creaminess, while hydrogenated coconut oil helps produce a fuller mouthfeel. The mix also contains salt for balance and natural and artificial flavors to round out the chocolate profile. No preparation beyond adding liquid is required, making it a convenient, shelf-stable option for quick servings.
