Bellagio Sipping Chocolate... "a revered European tradition originating in Italy and popular all over the Continent is Drinking Chocolate, where a blend of fine chocolates is melted in a special chocolate pot and poured into a small cup to be leisurely enjoyed.  Chocolatiers would boast the quality of their own recipes and their own secret ingredients.
As with our hot cocoas and caffe mochas, Bellagio® continues to honor this European tradition.  We use only the finest pure cocoa, bitter chocolate and cocoa butter to create our classic style Sipping Chocolate."

"It is not only easy to make, but one of the most versatile products we have ever created.  From the simple Sipping Shot to the sublime Chocolate Martini, the fine quality and rich taste of our Bellagio® Sipping Chocolate will have all who savor it sip by sip coming back for more!"
