I stupidly ordered nestle hot choc sachets from Amazon without checking the ingredients. Corn syrup dammit. Had the nestle hot choc sachets at a training centre in the city and could only find them on Amazon. Clearly not the same though.

That is disappointing. I have them supplied at work, so if you want lots of them you could try an office supply store.

Edit: I just had a quick look and Officeworks has it available online - you can get a 750g pack of the same mix if you don't want to buy 100 individual sachets!

Oooh thank you infinitely much. They make my office days much nicer.

Reminds me, I bought some Milo mocha sachets the other day thinking they'd be nice but they really suck. I can't taste either the Milo or the coffee, I can only really taste the sugar. Which is understandable, because on top of all the sugar in Milo, they put even more sugar into the sachet. There's something like 0.5g of coffee in it (not caffeine), which doesn't seem like a lot

Milo needs to be half the cup these days, or it has no taste. Thank you for the review, won’t bother trying them.

Yep. I got really excited when I saw them and bought 2 boxes, so I might try doubling up and seeing if that helps. But then there'll probably be more sugar than in a can of coke
