Barista-favourite Islands Chocolate is bringing café-quality drinking chocolate into the weekly shop at Tesco. The new Islands Chocolate Indulgence Range launched on 27th October and is now available in 450 Tesco stores and online.
The launch marks Islands Chocolate’s biggest retail collaboration to date, bringing a taste of the cocoa and craft found in their specialty hot chocolates range, into the hands of customers across the UK. The range, which is exclusive to Tesco, includes:
- Two 150g recyclable tins

- Milk Hot Chocolate Flakes, 150g (RRP £6.95)
- A brand-new box of 5x single-serve sachets of Milk Hot Chocolate Flakes (RRP £6.35) (the perfect dosage for hot chocolate machines and milk frothers, a first for the brand)
And just in time for Christmas, two seasonal additions will join the line-up to keep festive cupboards stocked.

- Milk & Dark Chocolate Flakes Sachet, 10x single-serve sachets (RRP £12.50)
Chocolate, the Islands Way
Islands worked closely with Tesco on concept and creation of this exclusive new range, crafted with exceptionally delicious cocoas
While Islands has historic roots sourcing cacao from its family farms in the Caribbean, the Tesco range represents an expansion of its model. Islands is bringing barista-quality standards to a product line-up at a great price, without compromise.
Packaging that pops – and lasts
The brand’s signature colour-pop cylindrical tins are widely recycled through household waste collection. Meanwhile, the new single-serve sachets bring both convenience and precision to the hot chocolate ritual, ensuring anyone can achieve a barista-quality hot chocolate at home.
A chocolate aisle shake-up
Known for being the hot chocolate of choice in leading independent cafés and coffee roasters across the UK, Islands is now set to transform supermarket shelves.
“Hot chocolate has always deserved better. For years, customers have been stuck with overly sweet powders and compromises on flavour. This launch with Tesco makes barista-quality hot chocolate available to everyone, every day – and we couldn’t be prouder,” says Wilf Marriott, Founder & CEO of Islands Chocolate.
The Islands Chocolate x Tesco range is now available in 450 stores nationwide and online at Tesco.com. The seasonal range will be available in selected stores from 27th November.
