Banoffee Hot Chocolate Melt

A twist on the classic English dessert
Based on the famous dessert pie, this combination uses a mix of banana and caramel flavours in either a milk or dark Melt for something very special.
The Banoffee Pie is a classic English dessert made from bananas, cream and toffee and often also incorporates chocolate. At Marimba we feel the chocolate element is one of the most important! The 1883 Banana gives a wonderful natural flavour with the caramel 1883 giving that sweet caramel toffee element. Mix both syrups together in a milk Hot Chocolate Melt and then top with cream to make this fabulous liquid take on the all time classic. For extra extravagance sprinkle chocolate flakes over the cream and drizzle toffee sauce on top.
We like to make this recipe with our 43% Venezuela milk hot chocolate. Great in our full range of white, milk and dark Hot Chocolate Melts.
A mix of Criollo and Trinitario beans from Venezuela. A richer milk chocolate with the distinctive accent of hazelnut, caramel and vanilla.
This Venezuelan chocolate combines a strong cocoa flavour, the impression of roasted beans and a clear nutty taste. The result is an exclusive milk chocolate; creamy, rich and delicious.
Criollo beans are native to Venezuela and are renowned for producing chocolate with richer more intense flavours. Their reputation dates back to the 17th century when Venezuela was the world’s leading cocoa producer.
1883 flavour syrups are made in France using natural spring water and flavours. At Marimba we find these make the perfect match for our Hot Chocolate Melts, not least because of the concentrated flavours meaning a smaller portion size for the same depth of flavour.
You never over sweeten your Melt, whilst getting a full and natural flavour.
We recommend just a 16ml portion for a normal 12oz sized mug. If making one of our delicious flavour combinations of two syrups you need just 8ml of each flavour. This ensures you do not over sweeten or overpower the hot chocolate Melt.
