    * The best low carb hot chocolate.. I have tried many and this is my favorite. Great taste and creamy texture. I put it in coffee every morning. Wonderful 50 calorie treat.

    * We love this as an ice cream/frosty substitute for keto. I take 2 scoops of the powder, 1 heaping T cocoa powder, 1 cp of unsweetened almond milk, 1/4 heavy cream, 1-2 cups of crushed ice and use the vitamix to make a cool dessert that has the consistency of a frozen Wendy's frosty. (stevia if needed). It makes 2.

    * While this is flavorful, and will probably be fine for a majority of the people living a low carb lifestyle its not for me. I should've checked the ingredients list, because I'm not a fan of sucralose or any chemical sweeteners. If this was sweetened with monk fruit, stevia, or the like I'd give it a higher rating. For flavor, it gets 5 stars but for the chemical sweeteners it gets 2..

    * Love, love, love this hot cocoa. I have been using it for years now and I'm always delighted with the taste. Nothing unpleasant at all, no bitter after taste, or lack of chocolate flavor. It does take a moment for two to to get it fully dissolved. I can throw in a bit of peppermint schnapps, and watch the snow falling down on the weekends. :)

    * Really like this cocoa. I don’t add milk or cream, just hot water, and I find it very yummy with no weird aftertaste. Aftertaste has always been my struggle with finding a good low carb hot cocoa. This gets an A+ and I will definitely order again!

    * I have searched for a long time and this is one of the best low carb hot chocolates I have found--as long as you follow the directions. I actually use my coffee creamer for the 1 oz. cream and it gives it a richer flavor. The creamer I use is CoffeeMate Italian Sweet Cream.

    * This is really, really good. I am particularly happy that Big Train uses erythritol and no maltitol (evil stuff I think is the primary cause behind failed low carb diets).

    It tastes great and is quite low in carbs. I use heavy cream instead of half & half as it is lower in carbs and you don't need to use as much. I recommend adding the cream directly to the hot chocolate mix and mixing it into a consistent slurry before adding the hot water. This really helps eliminate floating clumps.

    The only negative I can mention is that it does settle out more quickly than regular hot chocolate mix, so just get in the habit of giving it a stir every few sips.

    I also really love this added to coffee for a very nice mocha treat.

    * I've been enjoying this hot cocoa for several years now and have never had a better tasting cocoa. Occasionally I will add a package to a large cup of coffee and have a wonderful hot mocha drink that's lightly sweet and rich with flavor. None of the Big Trane products spike my blood sugar so I'm hoping they hang around for a very long time. It's nice to have genuine comfort foods without the negative impacts on my health. Thanks for carrying these products.

    * Big Train has the BEST low carb products I have tried so far. I have been enjoying the hot cocoa mix since Feb. 2004 and I highly recommend it! The cocoa is not too sweet, no funny after taste and does not at all taste "diet" like. It has a fantastic flavor and I drink it even when I fall off the low carb wagon.

    * Love the taste but have found it necessary to heat it a little more than the directions indicate. I also add a splash of half n half just to get a little more richness in the taste. Keep it on hand throughout the winter. It's great for a quick warm up. I like the convenience of the individual packs also.

    * I was shocked at how good the hot chocolate mix was.. I just re-ordered and opted for the 2 lb can. I took the mix to work with me for an afternoon treat :) I didn't even add the half-n-half but I'm sure that a dash of cream would make it even better. I did add one splenda to it because I like my drinks sweeter than it was originally. I would recommend this to everyone who is watching carbs or sugar. I've been on Atkins for about 2 1/2 years now and have discovered a lot of "keepers" here at Netrition. The Big Train hot cocoa was one of them!

I mix with water or soy milk with a little creamer or sugar free hazelnut flavor. This is an awesome product. It sells more than any other product I sell in my health club nutrition store!

    * This cocoa has a weird sickly-sweet aftertaste like a lot of the low-carb products. It is very chocolaty and much better than the other low-carb cocoa I tried in the past but I don't really like it very well. I am really kicking myself for buying it now, because I compared the nutrition label on the back of the box of cheap, store-brand cocoa my roommate has and I found out that it really wasn't necessary to order this for my low-carb diet. She buys the low-fat kind and it has 4 carbs, 3 grams of sugar, and no sugar alcohols per serving. The Big Train cocoa has 4 net carbs, 2 grams of sugar, and 10 grams of sugar alcohol per serving and costs 4 times as much for a smaller box. The store brand also makes a sugar-free version so I am going to check that out the next time I go to the store. Not being able to have cocoa when it's chilly is one of my downfalls on this diet so I'm really glad I found that out.

    * Tastes like regular Hot Chocolate to me. I haven't tried a lot of the other low carb hot chocolate mixes and I likely won't - since I didn't notice the difference between this and sweetened brands. Of course I've been doing the low carb diet for a while - so I'm sure I've gotten used to sugar free products.

    Buy it - I don't think you'll have any complaints!

We got this for Christmas last year and everyone agreed that Big Train's hot chocolate tasted just like regular hot chocolate -- even people who do not eat low carb! I thought it was especially good with a low carb marshmallow on top (also available on Netrition!).

    * I really like Big Train Low Carb Hot Chocolate Mix. It has a great taste and is just the right amount of carbs. I mix mine with low carb milk instead of water to increase my protein intake. It does take some work to mix this product as it does not dissolve the way most hot chocolate mixes do. I have tried different methods and short of putting it in a blender, can not find an efficient way to make it mix together without the clumping. Over all, it is still the best low carb hot chocolate I have discovered.

To me taste is much more important. This has a nice chocolate taste and no horrible aftertaste like some do. I also like the fact that it does have a little bit of fiber and store brands do not. I am buying more of this product.
