Enjoy a subtly spiced, extra indulgent, latte thanks to our Lindt Master Chocolatiers’ creation featuring our exquisite EXCELLENCE 85% Cocoa Dark Chocolate and a hint of sweet cinnamon. Simply delicious.
Chocolatier’s Tip
The intensity of the EXCELLENCE 85% Cocoa Dark Chocolate pairs perfectly with the sweet and creamy latte. You can ring the changes by looking at our flavoured EXCELLENCE bars - the Roasted Hazelnut works well too. If making this recipe for someone following a gluten free diet, always check the manufacturer's label to ensure your ingredients are free from gluten.
