Hot Chocolate hamper

Hi
Looking for ideas for a hot chocolate hamper (for pre-teen) other than hot chocolate and marshmallows my mind has gone blank. Appreciate any ideas to put in it and also any usual ideas that could be the hamper (not just a wicker box etc).

Many thanks

Some flavour syrups you can get small bottles of the monin ones Eg vanilla, caramel etc. Cinnamon shaker. Milk frother some nice biscuits cookies. Those long teaspoons for stirring...
And that’s all I’ve got!

Hotel Chocolat have really lovely flavoured hot chocolates. They do a machine that makes them too, but it's £100! Maybe check their website

Sprinkles or flakes for the top. Glasses to put it in. Long spoons for sure

Did one for Dp last year. I got one of each kind of hot chocolate available in the shops. Got every kind of sachet hot chocolate in every flavour (just got 1 of each). Got some posh hot chocolate, one in a big block that had to be melted into milk. Got some other posh ones from local deli. Got Welsh made chocolate, Got some Welsh made hot Chocolate. Basically bought every hot chocolate I saw from October to December.
Added a mug, a small mini grater (for sprinkles!) a silver spoon. Put it all in a box, job done!
Gf was well happy, as she was in a hot chocolate instead of coffee mood for months!
Wasnt the only gift I got her, it was just a small gift.

wilko/ b&m do packs of the syrup in various flavours
candy canes
squirty cream
sprinkles
Long spoon
mug
electronic frother?

get some plastic teaspoons - dip in chocolate, leave to dry, re-dip and cover in sprinkles, leave to dry and then they can stir the spoon into hot choc

lots of places are now selling hot choc bombs that are chocolate spheres filled with marshmallows so when you put it in a mug of hot milk the choc melts and the marshmallows come out

choc powder and a sprinkler/sifter or whatever they are called

stencils to put images on the top?

You can get sugar spoons on Etsy. Look great and fun. They melt as you stir Smile

I’ve done one for my DS:
Hot chocolate sachets
Hot chocolate stirrers (the chocolate blocks on spoons)
Chocolate bombs
Mini marshmallows
Squirty cream
Mini whisk
Chocolate duster
Nice/character/animal mug
Chocolate topping sauce

Could also maybe add biscuits, or flavoured syrups? Milk frother?
