Hot Cocoa Weather!

Crisp mountain air, snow-covered slopes and days spent gliding through frosty forests. But perhaps the best part comes afterwards: the après-ski! Back at the chalet, it’s time to kick off your ski boots, settle beside the fireplace and warm up with a steaming hot chocolate (marshmallows very much encouraged).

Whether you're returning from a day on the slopes or simply embracing a little alpine-inspired cosiness at home, a new favourite mug makes those winter moments all the more special. 

Our collection of mugs is just the thing for wrapping your hands around, preferably with something deliciously chocolatey inside...

Chalet-Style Hot Cocoa Recipe

Serves 2

500ml whole milk

100g dark chocolate, chopped

50g milk chocolate, chopped

1 tbsp double cream

½ tsp vanilla extract

Pinch of sea salt

Whipped cream, to serve

Gently heat the milk in a saucepan until steaming, then add the chopped chocolate, stirring until melted and smooth. Stir through the double cream, vanilla and a pinch of sea salt. Whizz with a milk frother until lovely and frothy, then pour into mugs and finish with a generous swirl of whipped cream.

Behind The Design

All our colours come from a carefully curated palette of 29, designed to mix, match and work beautifully together. Our Snowflake pattern brings together Lavender, Cobalt Blue and Ochre for a frosty yet warm combination that sits nicely with our New Christmas Icons.

The Christmas Icons have been designed with story telling in mind. Each panel is made of cleverly overlapping sponges that when all layered together create a fun scene that wraps around the entire mug. We start with the lightest colour first, gradually building up the story layer by layer until we add the final sponge, revealing the full pattern. Negative space is left to show details in the sky, with clouds and snowflakes making up our winter scenes. The mugs feature a surprise on the back, santa's sleigh, a golden moon or a church perching on the top of a snowy hillside.

A Log Fire & A Good Christmas Film

Christmas is made for sinking into a big squishy sofa and doing as little as possible. The list of requirements is also minimal: a crackling log fire, a good film and a tin of your favourite assorted chocolates and toffees within grabbing distance. And of course, a velvety hot chocolate topped with pillowy-soft pink and white marshmallows.
