Aztec Inspired Whisk

We're not looking for frothy chocolate milk, we want velvety liquid chocolate. For this, we took design inspiration from an ancient Aztec chocolate whisk called a molinillo to deliver a perfect texture every time.

Knurled Metal Handle

Taking inspiration from chocolate pots used by Kings of France, the Velvetiser's textured metal handle stands proudly to the side.

Coupled with pouring spouts on both sides, this makes for an ambidextrous pour with a satisfying weight.

Power Base

To give the Velvetiser the juice it needs to heat, melt & whisk your drinks, stand it on the power base. 

 We may be British, but these machines were made for the US, so it's ready for the outlet in your kitchen.
