01The ritual
A cup of velvet, at your own pace.
A cocoa with character and a subtle touch of Swiss mushrooms. Plain for intensity, with a little honey for indulgence — you decide how sweet.
03In the evening
The counterpart to Lion's Roast
Far less caffeine than coffee: many enjoy it as an end-of-day ritual. And no — it doesn't taste of mushroom, but of intense, velvety cocoa.
04A natural source of copper*
What cocoa brings, naturally
- Natural defences*
- Energy*
- Cell protection*
- Nervous system*
Nothing added: the copper comes straight from the cocoa.
* Copper contributes to the normal function of the immune system, to normal energy-yielding metabolism, to the protection of cells from oxidative stress and to normal functioning of the nervous system. Cocoa is naturally rich in copper.
05Preparation
Three ways to enjoy it
With milk
Heat 200 ml of milk without boiling. Whisk in 6 g of cocoa until smooth and frothy.
Plant-based drink
Same method with oat, almond or coconut drink. A milk frother makes it even more velvety.
With water
Mix 6 g into a little hot water to form a smooth paste, then top up to 200 ml while whisking. Lighter, more direct.
Tip: make a paste with a little hot liquid first — no lumps.

Frequently asked questions
Does Lion's Velvet taste of mushroom?
No: it remains an intense, velvety cocoa. The extracts add a soft note, with no mushroom flavour.
Is it sweetened?
No, no added sugar. Plain, it has a bold cocoa taste; with a little honey or sugar, it becomes an indulgent hot chocolate.
How do I best prepare it?
Heat 200 ml of milk without boiling and whisk in 6 g until smooth. A milk frother makes the texture even better.
How many cups per pouch?
About 33 cups at 6 g per cup.
