Max Brenner has launched its latest creation, Max’s Hot Choc Surprise, set to transform the hot chocolate into a magical moment thanks to its fun and hands-on design.

Choose from a milk chocolate, white chocolate and dark chocolate ball and:
1. Pour: begin by pouring hot milk over your hot chocolate ball
2. Reveal: watch as the ball melts to reveal the extra treats inside (mini marshmallows and waffle balls)
3. Devour: customise your experience and add melted chocolate for an extra sweet experience.

Max’s Hot Choc Surprise allows consumers to make a custom drink that suits personal taste, with a take home pack available for $10.99 or 3 for $30.

“We are always looking for new ways to bring joy and excitement to our customers,” said Max Brenner General Manager, Irene Vitocco.

“Our Hot Choc Surprises are more than just a drink; they’re an experience. Perfect for cosy date nights, a family treat, or after the movies with your friends, they are bound to become your new sweet treat obsession. The instructions are simple - pour, reveal, devour!”

Max’s Hot Choc Surprises are the latest addition to Max Brenner’s menu which also includes the chocolate vanilla slice and savoury items like the cheese toastie waffle, aka The Toffle.
