Posh chocolate brand Hotel Chocolat sells a wide range of treats, gifts and goodies that would make Willy Wonka proud. Ranging from individual bars and chocolate hampers to alcoholic drinks (salted caramel chocolate vodka liqueur is a firm favourite) there's something to appeal to everyone, which makes it a popular choice for gifts - and a great place to pick up Black Friday deals.

Black Friday is on November 26 this year, so keep an eye out to see what deals Hotel Chocolat has to kick start your Christmas shopping for the chocoholic in your life - or just give yourself a much-needed winter boost.

Hotel Chocolat Velvetiser Black Friday deals

Hotel Chocolat's signature Velvetiser range was a bestseller last Christmas. To the untrained eye it might seem like just a fancy milk frother but devotees of the Velvetiser say it makes barista-quality hot chocolates, lattes and mochas so you can enjoy a mug of liquid joy without leaving the house. It's also available in a range of colours and finishes so it can stand proudly on a worktop in your kitchen to add a bit of style.

Last year during their Black Friday event Hotel Chocolat reduced the cost of the Velvetiser by 20% and put together a range of bundles offering single sachet tasters of the many different versions of hot chocolate you can make with it, which include classics like mint and ginger hot chocolates as well as vegan-friendly nut-milk options and even a mince pie flavoured drinking chocolate.

Savvy shoppers are watching to see what the firm comes up with in this year's deal, although if you're too impatient to wait you can get a Velvetiser in charcoal, copper or white with two free hot chocolate cups for £99 for a limited time now.
