Lavazza Cocoa Powder — 50 sachets of 20g

Two formats for different uses — same category of B2B powdered chocolate but intended for complementary uses:

• Lavazza 20g sachets (this product) — single-serve size for hotels/restaurants/offices. Personal hygiene, elegant presentation, the signature Lavazza touch for the customer. Higher unit price but zero dosing, zero cross-contamination, zero waste.
• Ristora 1 kg bulk (#48970) — vending machine/hand-dispensing/manual preparation volume. Direct silo machine, lower price per cup. Ideal for high-volume and no-manual-service environments.

Good practice : hotel/restaurant with public vending machine + breakfast cup service = use both depending on the area (self-service vending = Ristora, breakfast service = Lavazza sachets).

Typical composition : sugar (major ingredient), fat-reduced cocoa powder, whey powder, thickeners (E415, E466), natural flavorings, salt. Exact composition to be checked on sachet packaging — variations may occur depending on the production batch.

Major allergens :

• Milk / whey — not compatible with vegan diet or milk allergy.
• May contain traces of: soy, nuts, gluten (multi-product factory). Check product label.

Cocoa origin : a blend of selected cocoa, typically from South America (Ecuador, Colombia) and West Africa (Ivory Coast, Ghana). The Lavazza signature guarantees an industrial Ho.Re.Ca. quality standard — not grand cru, but reliable and reproducible.

Classic recipe :

1. Heat 150 mL of UHT whole milk to ~65-70 °C (microwave 40 sec or saucepan over low heat).
2. Pour 1 sachet 20g Lavazza into the cup.
3. Slowly pour in the hot milk while stirring with a whisk or spoon to dissolve the powder.
4. Whisk vigorously for 15-20 seconds on the surface to incorporate air and create a foam.
5. Optional gourmet touch : add UHT whipped cream as a topping + sprinkle with pure cocoa or cinnamon or grated chocolate.

Lighter recipe with water : replace milk with 150 mL of hot water (~85 °C) — less creamy texture, reduced calorie intake (~80 kcal vs ~130 kcal with whole milk).

Serve in a 160 mL Lavazza cappuccino cup (#60440) for consistent branding and appropriate volume.

Not for use in automatic dispenser silos (the sachet format is not compatible with the augers of Necta/Bianchi/N&W/etc. machines). For this type of use, choose Ristora Chocolate 1 kg bulk (#48970) — dedicated silo format.

Yes, for quick manual preparation : whisk, domestic electric milk frother, electric milk pod (pour the sachet into the container, add milk/hot water, activate). Compatible formats : Nespresso Aeroccino, Bosch MilkMax, domestic cappuccino machine with manual nozzle.

Best before date: 12-18 months after manufacture (see date on box and individual sachet). Long shelf life thanks to the airtight individual sachet (aluminum film or food-grade paper) which preserves aromas and prevents oxidation.

Optimal storage : Protect from moisture, heat, and direct light (15-25°C, relative humidity < 65%). Unopened sachets will keep perfectly until the best before date. An opened but unused sachet can be resealed for use within a few hours—beyond that, ambient humidity may cause the powder to clump.
